It didn’t take long for former Ohio State stars to start mocking Jalen Rose on Twitter. the former Michigan and NBA star has caught plenty of grief over the last day, after saying he expects the Wolverines to take down the Buckeyes in 2020.
“I said it. Save the footage!” Rose exclaimed on ESPN’s Get Up! on Wednesday. “Michigan will beat the Buckeyes in football this year!”
As you can imagine, that didn’t go over well with former Buckeyes. Guys like Damon Arnette, Rashod Berry and Ezekiel Elliott took to Twitter to troll Rose for his take.
With Ohio State winning the last eight meetings and 15-of-16, they might be justified in their actions.

The footage will be saved, so Rose won’t have to worry about that. And in a few months, he’ll either look like a genius, or he’ll be trolled pretty hard again by Ohio State fans and former players.
We’ll find out on Oct. 24.
