Social media reacts to Ohio State’s big win over Tennessee in first round of the CFP

Ohio State Buckeyes cheerleaders celebrate a touchdown by running back Quinshon Judkins during the second half of the College Football Playoff first round game against the Tennessee Volunteers at Ohio Stadium in Columbus on Dec. 22, 2024. Ohio State won 42-17.

It’s been a long three weeks for Ohio State fans, especially on social media. Specifically, X (formerly Twitter), where both Tennessee and Michigan fans have been relentless in their trolling of Buckeye Nation. But Ryan Day and his team weren’t hearing any of the chatter, or maybe they heard all of it. Either way, the men in Scarlet and Gray came out swinging.

And as you may expect, social media had some things to say about the 42-17 blowout win over the Vols. Tennessee fans made some noise by buying up some tickets, talked of planting flags, and throwing goalposts in the Olentangy River. But it was not to be, and Buckeye Nation let loose. Let’s take a look at some of the best responses via social media from Ohio State’s lopsided win.

That’s some high praise

Tennessee long time insider Tony Basilio on his call-in show tonight said Tennessee has not seen a team like Ohio State all season in the SEC. The amount of playmakers Ohio State has they haven’t seen that before.

Really good

This is why I’ve been saying all along that Oregon should be rooting for Tennessee.
