Published:
Hopefully fans who attended Ohio State’s Student Appreciation Day practice on Saturday brought their gym shorts and tennis shoes.
On Saturday, Ohio State brought back the popular Student Appreciation Day, which had become a staple under Urban Meyer. The event allows students at OSU to take in a practice, grab some food, take pictures and get autographs with the players. It also requires a brief workout, too.
Well, at least for a few students.
Fans in attendance were asked to choose either offense or defense during the practice. If the offense scored, the students who selected chose the defense would have to do up-downs. If the defense got a stop, the offensive students would be required to do the exercise
The offense scored, meaning the defensive side got their workout in for the day.

A little sweat never hurt anyone, right?
Student Appreciation Day had become an annual event in Meyer’s seven years in Columbus. However, the Buckeyes had cancel last year’s event due to a change in schedule.
Ohio State had a pretty good turnout this year.
