I don't think that any impartial or semi-partial observer of Ohio State football this season thought that a win over Michigan was a total lock going into The Game. Despite generational talent in the wide receiver room, there were defensive deficiencies that Buckeye fans spent weeks wringing their hands about, and a sense that maybe, just maybe, the Michigan Wolverines were finally competent enough to give Ohio State a run for their money.
They were, and did. This loss sucks, it's garbage and awful and I hate it. But it's also a reminder that nothing last forever, and a decade of not losing to Michigan is in of itself a pretty insane thing to witness. But now it's over. Dammit!
THE TEAM
Yeah, this is going to shock you but Ohio State players weren't particularly active on social media after the game.
THE ALUMNI
I WILL ADMIT THAT THIS WAS A LITTLE RAY OF SUNSHINE IN AN OTHERWISE DREARY DAY
THE REST
So, uh, what's next? Literally a bowl game? In like a month? Is that real? What do I do until then? I'm going to bed.
