Twitter throws pity party for Rutgers after missed FG to avoid 56-0 loss
Bruce Thorson / USA TODAY Sports
Oh, Rutgers.
On a night when Ohio State did anything it wanted on the field, the Scarlet Knights had one last chance to avoid a devastating 56-0 shutout. All they needed was a 32-yard field-goal attempt to retain some dignity in bitter defeat.
With less than a minute to play, the field-goal unit lined up, snapped the ball, and watched as Andrew Harte's kick bounced off the upright, sealing the shutout loss in solemn fashion.
Twitter offered its takes on the finish, as well as Rutgers' pitiful night in general.
