After Ohio State experienced a Fiesta Bowl thrashing, you may have been trying to avoiding Twitter for the past week. But thankfully for you, I've collected all of the week's best tweets from across campus.
Fiesta Bowl
Aiming to claim back-to-back Fiesta Bowl crowns, and two in one year, the Ohio State Buckeyes came into this one with their eyes set on Tampa after a New Year's Eve clash with the Clemson Tigers.

But as the clock struck midnight, and we turned the calendar into 2017, Times Square wasn't the only place where the ball was being dropped.
Watson punches it in from a yard out. Tiger PAT is good.

And as the sun set on this forgettable bowl loss, the second of the Meyer era, emotions ran high amongst those in the Twittersphere.

Anyone have the number to that sideline phone?
— Cardale Jones (@Cardale7_) January 1, 2017
More pissed that's how we sent Coach Fick out...
— Darron Lee (@DLeeMG8) January 1, 2017
They need to go in the locker room, turn on the PS4, pop in Madden 17 & hit every play since this play calling has went MIA!!

If your last name is Bosa, I guess you're decent at pass rushing or something.
Joey Bosa had a sack and 5 hurries today. He has more pressures than any defender in the last 11 years through their first 12 games. pic.twitter.com/CcFLR7MVOS

Big fan of your choices here, Liam. Vanessa and Raven are also two of my favorites, but I see Corrine causing trouble for weeks to come. Stay tuned!
