Social media reacts to Ohio State vs. Arkansas State game

We found some of the best Twitter reactions to Ohio State’s win over Arkansas State. #GoBucks

People love to celebrate wins in sports, and it’s no different when it comes to Ohio State football notching another victory. So it was Saturday afternoon when the Buckeyes displayed a return to the passing game and took care of business against Arkansas State.

With social media becoming a bigger part of everyone’s lives, instead of shouting out the window, playing music, or honking horns in celebration, many take to social media with a display of emotion and adulation.

OK, we’re game.

We scour the free application called Twitter to bring you some of the best tweets and reactions that took place before, during, and after each Ohio State game and we’ve got the same for you after the 45-12 win this week.

Here are some of the best Twitter reactions, celebrating and reacting to the Buckeyes’ improvement to 2-0 for the 2022 season.

The Ohio State football team was back in action for its second game of the year on Saturday against Arkansas State. There are still some things to clean up, but the offense looked much more explosive than what it did against Notre Dame last week with a 45-12 victory.

Yeah, it was against a Sun Belt team that won’t likely give many top-end Power Five teams trouble, but this season is all about improving and moving forward with the hopes of being championship caliber when it matters.

As always, the USA TODAY cameras were on hand to catch some of the best high-resolution photos from the game, and we like to bring those to you at the conclusion of each Ohio State football game.

Here’s a look at some of the best photos of what took place in Ohio Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Five things we think we learned from Ohio State’s win over Arkansas State

Instant reaction and five things we think we learned about Ohio State after the victory over Arkansas State. #GoBucks

That’s more like it from the Ohio State offense. After putting up just 21 points against Notre Dame last Saturday, C.J. Stroud and his wide receiving corps lit it up and put up a bushel of points and yards against the Red Wolves in a 45-12 win.

Now, it wasn’t a coaching clinic by any means — there are plenty of things to clean up — but it should calm at least some of the whispers and negativity coming from the national media about the Buckeyes’ offensive showing in the first game of the season.

There are plenty of observations and takeaways from this one, and we get paid to bring them to you, so it’s time to earn the paycheck. Here are five things we think we learned about Ohio State’s showing against the Arkansas State Red Wolves Saturday afternoon.

Watch: social media reacts to Emeka Egbuka touchdown #GoBucks

The Ohio State Buckeyes have started this second half out hot and heavy and after a TreVeyon Henderson touchdown on the first drive, the second offensive drive saw C.J. Stroud strike Emeka Egbuka for a beautiful 49-yard touchdown pass.

Ohio State now holds a 38-9 lead over the Arkansas State Red Wolves with 10:30 left in the third quarter. We discussed in the first half how the offense hadn’t yet exploded, but it appears they have gone full-blown mushroom cloud here in the second half. Emeka Egbuka currently has four receptions for 118 yards and a touchdown.

Buckeye Nation is stoked about Egbuka and here are some reactions from Twitter.

Ohio State vs. Arkansas State: Stream, injury report, broadcast info for Saturday

Everything you need to know to see the Buckeyes on Saturday if you won’t be at the ‘Shoe.

Ohio State plays Arkansas State on Saturday, and if you’re wondering how you can watch the action live, you’ve come to the right place.

The Buckeyes and Red Wolves both got the season started right with wins over non-conference opponents. OSU started somewhat slow but the defense turned up the heat in the second half to secure a top-five win. Arkansas State on the other hand gave a dominating performance over Grambling State. 

Unfortunately for ASU, Ohio State is a completely different animal. Red Wolves coach Butch Jones spent time in the Buckeye State with the University of Cincinnati from 2010-2012. Maybe he’ll have some tricks up his sleeve, but it’s doubtful those tricks would be anything more than smoke and mirrors.

This should be a game where OSU can work on tightening up some loose ends and getting the backups some actual game experience.

Ohio State vs. Arkansas State Buckeyes Wire staff predictions

Our writers predict the Ohio State vs. Arkansas State game. #GoBucks

After taking care of business during some national mixed reviews against a top-five Notre Dame squad last week, Ohio State continues its journey in the 2022 season against Sun Belt conference foe Arkansas State.

It’s a game many believe the Buckeyes should win rather easily, but that doesn’t mean the Red Wolves won’t come into the ‘Shoe with a game plan and attitude to swing as hard as they can.

Each week, we throw it over to our three writers to provide a prediction and reason for what will happen in the next game on Ohio State’s schedule, and we’re doing the same here. Will the Buckeyes roll or will Arkansas State provide a stiffer than expected test?

Here’s what Phil, Mark, and Josh say about how things will play out Saturday afternoon against the Red Wolves.

WATCH: Ohio State drops football trailer for Week 2

Time for the latest Ohio State football trailer. If you are like us, you can’t get enough of these to get you ready for the next gameday Saturday. #GoBucks

We’ve missed these things. Every Thursday during the football season, the creative media folks drop a theatrical trailer for the next Ohio State game. If you haven’t gotten on board with these things yet, it’s time to do so because they are literally the best in the game.

Ohio State beat a top-five opponent, Notre Dame, last week and there was a lot of hard-hitting action and defense going on which — come to think of it — is an extremely positive development after what we saw last year.

This week, the Buckeyes step back and take on Arkansas State in the next step along a journey they hope ends with some rings, trophies, and confetti. Do yourself a favor and hit play on the below trailer, remove the furniture and turn up the volume.

Ohio State will host Arkansas State at Noon ET on Saturday, with the Big Ten Network having the game for all of those that live, eat, and breathe all things scarlet and gray.

Ohio State vs. Arkansas State: preview and prediction

Ohio State looks to work on improving its game when Arkansas State comes to town. #GoBucks

Week one is in the books and Ohio State took care of business and passed its first test against No. 5 Notre Dame. The defense looked fast and dominated the line of scrimmage holding the Irish to just 10 points total, none of which were scored in the second half.

The Buckeyes will now get a little rest before opening Big Ten play in a few weeks. First up, the Arkansas State Red Wolves which got off to a nice start with a 58-3 beating of Grambling State.

Don’t let that score fool you. The Red Wolves started the 2021 season in a similar fashion with a big win but finished the season with just 2 wins and 10 losses. This should be an opportunity for OSU to work on tightening up some loose ends on both offense and defense.

Arkansas State Red Wolves Preview 2022

It’s been a rough run for a program used to playing for big things in the Sun Belt.

While others like Louisiana, Appalachian State, and Coastal Carolina have become the stars of the conference, and with other good new parts coming into the league, Arkansas State has sputtered and struggled over the last two seasons with no defense, not enough of an offense to keep up, and without and semblance of a break.

Butch Jones is a solid head coach. Things might not have gone perfectly at Tennessee, but he’s got the chops to use 2021 as a rebuilding season and turn this year into a big step forward.

First, getting more out of the defense would be nice. More on that in a moment.

Arkansas State Red Wolves Preview 2022: Offense

The Red Wolves have the passing attack. Part of the reason they were on top of the Sun Belt in passing was out of necessity. They had to keep throwing to try keeping up the pace, but they also had the parts.

The O averaged close to 400 yards and 25 points per game, but the ground game wasn’t good enough and the offensive line gave up way too many sacks. The passing attack really was strong, but …

Losing top wide receiver Corey Rucker to South Carolina hurts, but 6-1, 208-pound Te’Vailiance Hunt and deep threat Jeff Foreman are decent veterans to start with. This was a very, very, young group, and now there’s decent depth to keep rotating into the mix.

Former Florida State starter James Blackman was terrific at times over the first half of the year before getting knocked out for the season with a shoulder injury. Layne Hatcher stepped in and kept bombing away, but with Blackman back he’s gone to Texas State. The Red Wolves will keep throwing, but …

Again, the ground attack has to be better. That starts with needing more from a line that had a mix or different parts last year but now will go younger, a slew of new guys will be in the mix, and … it might take a little bit to come together after a rough spring. It’s not a massive line outside of 340-pound tackle Robert Holmes, but this group should be able to move.

Now the backs need more work. Arkansas State only ran 349 times last year for 989 yards and four scores. Averaging under three yards per carry, the backs had nowhere to go. Smallish speedster Lincoln Pare led the way with 455 yards and a score, but now he’s in the transfer portal.

Arkansas State Red Wolves Preview 2022: Defense

Not everything was awful about the Arkansas State defense. Yeah, it was last in the nation against the run, and yeah, it was the second-worst in college football overall, and it allowed 506 yards and 39 points per game, but …

There was pressure. Not enough of it, but former Tennessee transfer Kivon Bennett generated eight sacks and 16.5 tackles for loss from one defensive end spot, and fellow former Volunteer John Mincey is a veteran to start with on the inside. Now this group has to hold up a wee bit against the run, even with a slew of new guys in the rotation.

The linebacking corps isn’t big, but it can move. The plays behind the line mostly came from the line, but 6-1, 216-pound junior Jaden Harris and 5-10, 180-pound Melique Straker have the quickness to do more.

Teams were so busy running on ASU that the secondary caught a bit of a break. This group should take a bit to come together, especially at safety. The corners will be fine in time, but losing second-leading tackler Jarius Reimonenq to James Madison stings.
