Ohio State blows out Indiana, 38-15. Now, it's time to do the same to That Team Up North.
Losses are not something that we are accustomed to dealing with under the Urban Meyer era, and because of that, we've gotten particularly bad at it. While I don't want to dwell on the past too much (despite it being a regular part of my day job), the one thing that I want to point out is that while I share your frustration, you probably don't want to end up in a post like this one.
Just saying, be careful out there in the Land of Hot Takes, y'all.
THE PLAYERS
Slim pickings this week, which, you know, probably isn't a shock. Flying back to the relative civilization of Columbus after spending far too long in the darkest wilds of Pennsylvania will probably cheer them up some, but for now, the team seems pretty down in the dumps.
It's the journey that makes the destination that much more fulfilling........

THE ALUMNI
Witness a group of former players get increasingly angry with an impending loss! If you stick your face on your computer screen you can literally feel their desire to con their way into an extra year of eligibility. It's... depressing.
Salted Bruh!

Ohio State deserves to drop in the polls.. their play has been subpar every game after OU games... it's pathetic...

As champion you live with taking a loss! You grind harder pull together and fire back. Season is never over! #ibleedscarletngray #GoBucks

A.J. TRAPASSO HATES TIM TEBOW SO HONESTLY HE'S MY FAVORITE PUNTER NOW
Also he did that fake punt once in a preseason game and it was baller.
I didn't think I could hate @TimTebow more than I already do. After seeing that commercial I was wrong. #godawful

THE REST
I enjoy that Happy Valley can get to an appropriate level of lit, but to be honest, it's really only enjoyable if said litness is followed by sad pictures of Nittany Lion fans in facepaint.
That was pass interference man!!!

Penn State Nittany Lion roar sitting at a #nice 69 right now. Still roughly 19 minutes of game clock to get to 100.

So that sucked. Next week should suck less, but in the meantime, let's leave the pissed off Tweeting to the professionals.
