Urgent Plea from Ohio State Football: What’s Happening Tonight Has Fans on Edge

Ever wonder how tight-knit a fanbase can be before it truly shows its heart? Well, the Ohio State Buckeyes community just laid it all out there—wide open and pulsing with hope. When Bryson Rodgers, the Buckeyes wide receiver who’s been turning heads with his 2024 plays, took to X (you know, the platform formerly known as Twitter) to ask for prayers for a beloved fan named Mason, who suffered a serious car accident, it wasn’t just a shout into the void.
