LOOK: Ohio State's Andre Wesson checked back into game after cracking three teeth

It’s still football season.

Bowl season is upon us. However, for Ohio State, the team’s final football game will take place on Jan. 1 against Washington in the Rose Bowl.

In the meantime, the Buckeyes’ basketball team has a few non-conference games left before B1G play really gets going in January. On Saturday, No. 15 Ohio State hosted Bucknell and escaped with a 73-71 win. Kaleb Wesson led the way with 22 points, 10 rebounds and 4 assists.

Another Wesson — Andre — had a scary moment in the game. Andre fell for a loose ball and stayed down on the court for quite some time before getting up. There was a good reason why.

He lost three teeth.

However, that didn’t stop him from going back into the game:

Andre Wesson had an ugly fall that resulted in three cracked teeth.

This pretty much sums up the word “toughness.”

After the game, Ohio State coach Chris Holtmann apologized because he stepped on one of Andre’s teeth:
