Every week, Eleven Warriors will dive into the mentions of Ohio State's coaches and players to bring you the #HotTakes and ramblings of Buckeye Nation. This week, fans failed to remain calm during Ohio State's thrilling overtime victory over Maryland.
It wasn't as easy it should've been, but the Buckeyes left College Park, Maryland winners thanks to a 52-51 banger.
Dwayne Haskins did whatever he wanted, especially down the stretch, as he piled up 405 passing yards, 59 rushing yards and six total touchdowns. J.K. Dobbins paced the revitalized ground game, registering a career-high 37 carries and 203 yards to complement a touchdown.
The defense struggled, though, against a Terrapins offense that had managed just 215 total yards combined against the last two legit teams it played (Iowa and Michigan State). The fighting Matt Canadas had 204 total yards against the local squad before the first quarter was up on Saturday.
Let's get to the mentions.
@ Urban Meyer
@OSUCoachMeyer FIRE SCHIANO!!!!! Go Bucks

This tweet came precisely 50 seconds into the game. I'll spare you the redundancy and assure you there were approximately 1,294,251 tweets exactly like this one during the game.
Still waiting for that fix @OSUCoachMeyer
— Bo Capbell (@Bo_Campbell5) November 17, 2018
@OSUCoachMeyer I'm completely disheartened by the level of play this year. You've let your poor choices in coaches and the people you associate with taint a proud program. There's a fair amount of soul searching that should take place this offseason. This is disgraceful.
— Jason Sesler (@jmsesler) November 17, 2018
Once @OSUCoachMeyer understands that Haskins isnt a running threat this offense will finally reach their potential
— Tony F Baby (@RealTonyBones) November 17, 2018
I would say the D better not give up another big play the rest of the game. @OSUCoachMeyer is not look very happy right now. Most animated I've seen him.
— Jaren Collins (@jarencollins) November 17, 2018
Narrator: the D did in fact give up several more big plays.
.@OSUCoachMeyer haha youre losing to Maryland! Lolololol haha

Dear parody account, make sure the L is secured before you talk smack.
#OhioState looks like @OSUCoachMeyer looks like hes going to fake another illness
— Billy Vegas (@theD0C3) November 17, 2018
It's 2018, when will the #h8ers find a new joke? And this isn't even all that funny considering it's pretty clear Meyer has some legitimate health issues.
@OhioStAthletics leave it to #ESPN to bring up the false allegations against @OSUCoachMeyer those creeps just cant help themselves how about a story of the kid who died at #Maryland & the tributes they do for him?? Nope. Espn savors the bad stuff
— Abel Rivas (@Bikernole) November 17, 2018
I'm mostly with Abel here. Why give airtime to a baseless and largely discredited story on national television? As soon as I saw the Watch Stadium logo flash across the television screen my eyes nearly rolled right out of my head.
This has to be the worst 1st quarter @OSUCoachMeyer has seen in his time at Ohio state.
— Dustin (@Dustin08945374) November 17, 2018
There's actually an argument to be made for that.
This looks like the worst coached team in the nation @OSUCoachMeyer @OhioStateFB
— Philip Simpson (@philipsimps0n) November 17, 2018
Well you forgot Rutgers is a thing, but not the worst take I've seen.
hey @OSUCoachMeyer THEYRE GONNA RUN THE BALL
— brandon (@bszekely5) November 17, 2018
It's pretty amazing how this coaching staff seems unable to make a simple adjustment until halftime.
Hey @OSUCoachMeyer casual fan here but it looks like motion to the strong side and then runs back to the weak side.
— Hobie (@hobiwankanobi) November 17, 2018
College football should institute a Who Wants to Be a Millionaire? type lifeline system that allows coaches to ask for assistance during a game. The powers that be could help Meyer eliminate two ineffective plays from the playbook, phone a former coach who might know how to instruct linebackers better than Bill Davis or check the ole' timeline for suggestions. Hobie would've saved the Buckeyes a lot of frustration.
Haskins @OhioStateFB @OSUCoachMeyer
— Titans, Utes, VGK (@bdd4life) November 17, 2018
You know what else this person thinks is trash? Finding a 20 in jeans you haven't worn since last winter. A great night of sleep. Maybe a plate of perfectly cooked bacon.

Love college football!!! What a game BUCKEYES! Way to go @OhioStateFB .. @OSUCoachMeyer you can breathe now
— Cathy williams (@CathyWilliams34) November 17, 2018
As Kevin pointed out in today's Skull Session, this game was a hell of a lot of fun if you set aside kind of playoff expectations you were still holding on to.
@ Greg Schiano
Poor Greg. Ohio State's defensive coordinator got a break from the Twitter hate after his unit performed well on the road against Michigan State, but it all fell apart this Saturday.
I can't highlight about 90 percent of what Schiano received this weekend because Eleven Warriors is and always will be a site for kids of all ages.
@OSUCoachSchiano we are really close please exit left. Alllll season.
— CJ Groh (@groh_cj32) November 17, 2018
@OSUCoachSchiano lol
— Law (@35nation) November 17, 2018
Our defense is improving each week, right @OSUCoachSchiano?
— Jake Mason (@JakeMason8) November 17, 2018
Hey @OSUCoachSchiano good thing that defense is "really close" to being great like you said after the Purdue game Any real coach looks at the reality of the situation and improves his team. They don't just blow smoke up their under performing defenses ass.
— ike Honcho (@GoBucks2016) November 17, 2018
Y'all are keeping the receipts every time Schiano says things are improving.
@OSUCoachSchiano so what school do you think youll be coaching at next year?
— Big Ten Daddy (@B1GTenDaddy) November 17, 2018
@OSUCoachSchiano may want to fix the scheme there, Greg, old boy https://t.co/XwiHPpWCol
— Zach Heller (@ZachHeller2) November 17, 2018
WTF....? fire @OSUCoachSchiano He has our linebackers at the line of scrimmage AGAIN. Giving our LBs NO CHANCE at READING AND ATTACKING THE BALL. pic.twitter.com/izhjSmllTl

— Betsy Crabtree (@betsycrabtree) November 17, 2018
Heck yeah Betsy let's go.
Congrats @dh_simba7 on breaking Joe Germaines 20 year old single season passing record

What a year from the exciting quarterback. Congratulations @dh_simba7! #GoBuckeyes https://t.co/0SYx9wLqJM

I'm going to start writing some fan fiction about this.

"Dangerous Dobbins?" Really he barely moves the ball. @Jkdobbins22 kinda over rated...

Somebody get @dh_simba7 and @Jkdobbins22 a chiropractor
— Jiy (@Ohvermeyer) November 17, 2018
I needed three weeks of chiropractor care after suffering an injury golfing. I don't know how these kids do it.
@Jkdobbins22 How does your back feel? pic.twitter.com/lGDSBgRCjC

Carrying the squad is hard work.
