Yesterday, Ohio State hired Kevin Saghy, the social media director of the Chicago Cubs, to take over the same role for the university. He comes to Columbus with the Buckeyes taking several blasts from their Cotton Bowl opponents on social media.
@USC_Athletics has taken to Twitter to share the Trojans' recent success against Ohio State's football program. The first swipe was simple enough. On 12/14, an overrated character from Star Wars was used to select the overrated team from Tinseltown:

Later that evening, highlights of the 1975 Rose Bowl were shared. This is the victory that started the current seven-game winning streak against the Buckeyes:

Six days later, @USC_Athletics wasn't shy about sharing the news of the seven-game winning streak and the 35-3 blowout win from 2008:

Friday is the time for Ohio State to end this losing streak and give Kevin Saghy plenty of highlights and ammunition to make a rebuttal against @USC_Athletics.
Looking forward to what the newest Buckeye weapon will come up with to counter Southern Cal's war of the words.
