What happened

Ball State came to Columbus and left in pieces, 56-3, and Ohio State opened 1-0 without much drama. The scoreboard was never in question, so the fanbase went looking for something to argue about and settled on Legend Bey, whose first real carries turned the afternoon. One fan called him "raw but his jump cut ability is rare." Another just warned the rest of the schedule: "Legend bey is going to be a problem!" Misery sat at 24, which is as close to peace as this crowd gets. Enjoy it. The calendar always collects.
