With the college football regular season calendar winding down, team social media accounts continued to cook with post-victory jabs.
The Ohio State Buckeyes cruised to their fourth consecutive victory on Saturday, brushing off an early score by the Northwestern Wildcats en route to a 31-7 win.
With Northwestern’s Ryan Field in the process of being torn down and rebuilt, the Wildcats’ home game was played at Wrigley Field in Chicago. Following the result, the Ohio State social media team took a shot at the field’s usual purpose, as well as the Buckeyes’ productive offensive outing.

Here’s a look at some of the best postgame jabs from Week 12 of the college football season.
It might not have been the prettiest win for the Louisiana Tech Bulldogs — all 12 of the team’s points came from field goals — but the Bulldogs secured a triumph on the road against the Western Kentucky Hilltoppers.
Few teams have a more distinctive mascot than the Hilltoppers’ Big Red, a fact the Bulldogs took advantage of with a postgame caption and an emoji-based jab.

The renewal of one of the old Southwest Conference’s best rivalries didn’t disappoint, with the Texas Longhorns gritting out a 20-10 slugfest win against the Arkansas Razorbacks. Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers threw for a pair of scores in the win, including a fourth-quarter strike to Matthew Golden that put the game away.
There wasn’t much love for Texas among the home faithful in Fayetteville, Arkansas, and the Longhorns trolled Razorbacks fans after the game by flipping a photo of a “horns down” flag brought to the contest upside down.
