Cardale Jones was Ohio State’s saving grace on Twitter during Oklahoma loss

Cardale Jones savaged Urban Meyer during Ohio State’s loss to Oklahoma, and was still probably the most reasonable person on Buckeyes Twitter.

While Ohio State fans watched in horror as their team gave up 21 straight points to Oklahoma, they were still entertained on Twitter by Cardale Jones. Ever since 12 Gauge bolted to the NFL two years ago, he hasn’t gotten much playing time, but is still beloved by Buckeyes fans. And while he was in school, he gained a lot of attention — for better or worse — from his Twitter account.

As he was watching the second half unfold, he provided some much needed entertainment for fans that needed an escape:

Even though Jones spent most of his time ripping Kevin Wilson and Urban Meyer, most Ohio State fans went after J.T. Barrett for his lackluster performance. Jones wasn’t one of them, as he reminded everyone of what Barrett’s accomplished in a Buckeye uniform:

He also put the loss into perspective, when he recalled Ohio State’s loss to Virginia Tech in 2014:

While it shouldn’t be ruled out, it’s unlikely to happen. Right now, Penn State is the class of the Big Ten and their offense will be much harder to contain than Oklahoma’s. At this point, the only hope the Buckeyes have is running the table.

And even though Barrett owns many Ohio State records, he should’ve followed Jones’ path by leaving for the draft as soon as his play started dropping off. He had a chance to be a mid-round gem for an NFL team, but instead he’s been hurting his draft stock with his poor play this season.

If anything, Jones’ tweets go to show how much Ohio State fans miss him, and how far away they are from their glorious title run of 2014. Even though he’s 2,000 miles away in LA, Cardale is still one of the most popular figures in Columbus.
