Player/Coach Quotes:
"It is an honor that my teammates have selected me to be a captain. I wish things could have gone better. But not one day went by where guys had their heads down. We always found a way to get things done." -Senior Center, Mike Brewster
"I want to thank my teammates for all the memories we've been through in the last four years, and I want to thank them for selecting me to be a captain. It is truly an honor to be named a captain." -Senior Linebacker Andrew Sweat
"This is the first year that I've counted the most valuable player votes and it was close in a lot of different areas. But Herron, the winner of our team MVP award, was an unbelievable example of how to handle adverse situations on and off the field. He was an example to us all." -Head Coach, Luke Fickell

Are you ready for some football?? Let’s go Bucks!
Game time!
After Basil’s kick went out of bounds, Florida making its way down the field. Buckeyes need a stop here
I cannot believe a call went our way!
BOOM!
Gotta make a decision there miller. Pass or run!
Okay, Buckeyes, let’s play a little more defense.
Remember when they used to cover the game? do we really need to see an interview with a nascar driver during the game?
Delay of game backs up Florida 5 yards. Time for a big stop here!
Timeout Florida. Had to take it to avoid another delay of game
