Bad weather Buckeyes? Fans react as Ohio State gets off to blazing start in snowy conditions

Fans lamented this past week about Ohio State’s ability to play in bad weather.
Many thought the Buckeyes’ slight 21-7 win over Northwestern was a testament to their inability to truly be named an elite team. After all, if you can only dominate in perfect conditions, what kind of elite team are you.
It seems those concerns were greatly exaggerated. Ohio State is already up 21-0 on Indiana on 3 straight offensive drives. It’s been domination thus far in snowy winter conditions in Columbus.

So Ohio state is soft and can’t handle weather. I wonder if the same narrative will be pushed this week about LSU since they are needing oxygen, coffee, broth, and hot chocolate on the sidelines because if the poor weather conditions in Fayetteville. 39 and sunny must be rough
