The Ohio State Buckeyes and Penn State Nittany Lions squared off in a massive college football matchup on Saturday. The #4 Buckeyes traveled to Happy Valley and knocked off the #3 ranked Lions.
The final was 20-13 as 10 second half points proved to be too much for Penn State.
However, there could be some other ramifications from this game on the horizon.
“He’s Getting Fired Today” Ohio State’s Controversial Win Over Penn State Causes Massive Ramifications
According to Nate Lunak of Total Pro Sports:
On Saturday, Penn State and Ohio State will face off in one of the most highly anticipated games of the college football season. Ohio is the No. 4 team in the country, and Penn State is No. 3.
Of course, with such a high-ranked matchup, there are a lot of eyes on the game, which means there is very little room for mistakes from the referees.
At the start of the second quarter, Penn State cornerback Elliot Washington received a 15-yard unsportsmanlike penalty for stepping over and taunting an Ohio receiver after making a tackle.

Many on social media claim the game is rigged since Ohio State scored a touchdown on the same drive:
Might be one of the worst calls of all time https://t.co/ql5rf2jcFf

The refs chose to “let them play” by not throwing a single flag for holding or pass interference — on either team — the entire game, but decided to put their foot down on *this*.
Led to an OSU touchdown in a game OSU won by … a touchdown. https://t.co/neCJtb0b9P

Ref show. You will see this 30 times on a Saturday and it never gets called https://t.co/07imK1HJkK

Hey @NCAAFootball this game is clearly fixed. No chance there’s enough evidence to overturn that. Missed holding calls on OSU DB’s. Have to please the people in Columbus tho I guess…

Ohio state is a joke. They cheat and get all calls and should be 4-3. Period. And they can’t even control an elections. Ohio is a joke.

Cannot disagree with most comments. First and goal with 4 attempts to gain a yard??? Can’t stop a team running the ball every down the last 5 minutes??? Can’t disagree that either???
