Ohio State football sends cryptic tweet about potential return to play
With a reported decision coming from the Big Ten about returning to play, Ohio State football tweeted out a video that has fans wondering what it means.
After a report circulated on Tuesday morning from the Nebraska president about an announcement from the Big Ten coming on Tuesday, everyone in Big Ten country took notice.
While it’s unclear what that announcement will entail, the majority believe it will be about when the Big Ten football season will begin and a revised schedule to fit in as many games as possible between mid-October and mid-December to be eligible for the College Football Playoff.
There is no Big Ten team with better chances of making the four-team playoff than the Ohio State Buckeyes who were ranked No. 2 in the preseason AP Top 25. With quarterback Justin Fields, who was the preseason Heisman favorite prior to the league’s postponement, the Buckeyes and their fans are hopeful for a resolution that lets them take the field.
So it’s no wonder that the Ohio State football account would tweet their apprehension, anxiety, excitement and bundle of nerves with the most perfect video possible to sum up their emotions.

This definitely sums up the emotions being felt among Buckeye Nation as well as the players and coaches who hope they can get a chance to play.
Ohio State football head coach Ryan Day released an impassioned statement last week expressing his displeasure with the Big Ten over a lack of transparency and lack of communication in regard to the next phase of returning to play.
Day said he understood the initial decision but wanted more answers as the league seemingly was content being in a state of limbo or perpetual pause while the Big 12 and ACC began their seasons last weekend and the SEC begins their season on Sept. 26.
The Big Ten made their decision to postpone the season so they could get more information on testing availability, contact tracing and the effects of myocarditis on positive COVID-19 cases among players.
