Okay! Look, I'll take it. It was a weird game. A guy apparently quit in the middle of it, there were no revelatory answers about the quarterback position, like half the team was injured or sick or who the hell knows.
But none of that matters, because Ohio State was supposed to put the screws to Akron, and that's exactly what they did. TreVeyon Henderson played for approximately five seconds, but looked great. The defense settled down and had their best performance of the season. And best of all, the Tweets were extremely good.
THE TEAM
To God be the Glory! Go Bucks!

This experience that Kyle McCord is getting is so important. Having all freshman QBs is tough. No vet in the QB room that can relate to in-game situations and if the starter gets hurt in a big game having someone who never threw a ball in a game to rely on would be tough.

Kyle McCord will start at QB for Ohio State tonight against Akron. We spoke with Kyle's parents just a few hours ago about what it's going to mean to them to see their son play his first game as a Buckeye. pic.twitter.com/YXAxUtH91M

Next week is Rutgers, so get your Sopranos jokes ready, and hope that the Buckeyes can field a fully healthy team for once.
