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, we're looking back at Ohio State's Friday night blowout win over Northwestern.
The Buckeyes continued bulldozing their way through their schedule last week, invading Evanston and coming away with a 52-3 win over Pat Fitzgerald and the Wildcats.
Ohio State piled up 480 yards of total offense against a solid Northwestern defense and followed a developing trend of explosive second quarters, scoring 24 unanswered points before the break.
The defense had another dominant outing as well, limiting the Wildcats offense to 199 yards (the Buckeyes haven't surrendered over 300 yards through seven games).
Throw in the 55-yard field goal as time ran out in the first half and Ohio State dominated in all three phases of the game.
Buckeye fans had very little to complain about. Let's get to the mentions.

Please, for the love of God, do not make the mistake of seasons past and underestimate the Wildcats tonight. We don't need another Iowa/Purdue game.
There was no underestimating here.
How do you not like @ryandaytime got them buckeyes looking good O-H!!!! #BuckeyeNation

Coach @ryandaytime has Buckeyes -28 for sure.
— Brennen Yaquinto (@BrennenYaquinto) October 19, 2019
I did too. If you're betting against the Buckeyes then you must hate money.
@ryandaytime should set a new record against ttun and win 89-0

Forever and ever. Fields tallied four touchdowns against Northwestern, bringing his season total to 30. Not bad, IMO.
