Social Reactions: As the Rest of the Top 10 Struggled, Ohio State Put on a Show

This was a weirdly entertaining weekend of college football, and, in typical college football fashion, it was because good teams looked bad. My personal rule of thumb when it comes to rooting interests in this sport is "pray for Ohio State to win, and then hope for the funniest/most entertaining possible outcome in every other game".

One addendum that Saturday might force me to add to this equation is "pray for Ohio State to win in such a manner that it makes every other team look like absolute ass in comparison", because it turns out that other blue bloods struggling to put away the likes of Wyoming and Bowling Green as the Buckeyes are blowing out some hapless out of conference foe by a billion points is actually even better than that.

Kyle McCord struggled a bit in the season opener at Indiana but has been excellent the last two games.

Notre Dame is next, and it should be a doozy. See you then!
