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

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.

Narrator: the D did in fact give up several more big plays.

Dear parody account, make sure the L is secured before you talk smack.

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.

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.

There's actually an argument to be made for that.

Well you forgot Rutgers is a thing, but not the worst take I've seen.

It's pretty amazing how this coaching staff seems unable to make a simple adjustment until halftime. 

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.

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.

The man's posture does need some work.

What is the correlation between this tweet and the gif that's included?

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.

Y'all are keeping the receipts every time Schiano says things are improving.

@ Dwayne Haskins

Heck yeah Betsy let's go.

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

This was true pretty much every time he pulled the ball.

The man surprised us all.

Stop having fun.

@ J.K. Dobbins

Oh Erin. No.

I needed three weeks of chiropractor care after suffering an injury golfing. I don't know how these kids do it.

Carrying the squad is hard work.
