NSFW crashouts, hot takes, and fans behaving badly.
Welcome back to another two-part Meltdown! There were so many painful losses, so many duds, so much bed-wetting, that we couldn’t contain it in just one post. Indeed, we couldn’t even contain it to one conference. So, today we’re going to tackle the Big 10: two games in particular. We’ll still have the regular Meltdown for you on Tuesday.
Disclaimers follow: The Meltdown frequently features naughty language or imagery that is offensive, beyond the pale, replete with -isms and -ists and -phobias, and other displays of inhumanity that are NSFW. But if schadenfreude is your bag, we’ve got you covered. Enter the Meltdown.

Oh, Ryan Day. All you had to do was line up, RTDB over the Trojans, play a little defense, and leave LA. Instead, your defense took a powder and you decided to take a three-star freshman making his first start 2000 miles away on the road, and throw the ball 30 times. You got what you deserved: smoked by the men of Troy.

Lincoln Riley and Steve Sarkisian are undoubtedly the most overrated coaches I can remember in my years of watching CFB. And Ryan Day lost to both of them. In the same year.
They beat a back up QB. Still not good.
USC and Buckeyes are in 2 different tiers. One is a perennial natty contender and USC is a wannabe. Congratulations to the Trojans – but the win was enabled by a QB injury – just Sayin
Ryan Day is a faggot so there’s that
Never trust queers who dye their beard to hide a cuck jawline.
Lost to an alcoholic and probably the worst person that is a head coach Fuck you Ryan Day
I will never forgive Ryan Day for screwing over Jeremiah Smith.
Ryan Day has ruined New Year’s Eve and Halloween in separate years, not to mention Thanksgiving
After 2024 Ryan Day had a chance to turn his program into prime 2010s Alabama and instead he hired an Akron guy to be his QB coach, a TE coach to coach the OL and a 6 year GA to coach the TEs
“ryan day is an elite coach” lmfaoooo you genuinely have no fucking clue what you’re talking about
The definition of insanity is watching Ohio State and thinking the same issues that have plagued the Ryan Day era will ever change.
Get this New Hampshire guy away from our program. Nobody does less with more, consistently. When are the big donors gonna get upset and put a stop to this.
He’s destroyed the best player in college football history last two seasons and only won a title cause his players bullied him into it and took over.
Of the many sins of Ryan Day, being dog shit at special teams year after year, and being smugly dismissive about it when asked in a post-loss press conference, is probably at the top of the list
We deserve to lose. Ryan Day is a fucking retard. WHY THE FUCK IS JJ ALWAYS THE ONLY WR ON THE FIELD IN THE REDZONE WHYYYYY RYAN. IT DIDNT WORK LAST YEAR IT WONT WORK THIS YEAR WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK RYAN
This nigga bootycheeks
Fuck Ryan Gay and his nipple rings
Team full of ńiggers and jokers
Like this is bad. We never expected this season to be perfect but we sure in tf didnt have losing to USC in there.
Smith should immediately declare for the draft and leave to protect himself from pointless injury.
Urban would randomly lose to Purdue or Iowa. But when the big games rolled around, he wasn’t getting his lunch money stolen, shoved into a locker, and sent home crying like Ryan Day. There’s a difference between getting upset and getting absolutely bullied.
Ryan day losing to usc so usc is forced to extend Lincoln Riley another 4 years Chess not checkers
fuck off my tv, worst osu team in years, and if we were any type of good we win the natty this year since everyone sucks ass
So, Let me educate the dear leader on the hurry up offense… you dont actually have to huddle. This works great when youre down 2 scores late in games.
OL those mother fuckers su k man
Ryan Day needs to have his beard dye privileges revoked immediately
Same shit with Ryan Day every year. He is brain dead. Chip Kelley saved this mans career
Keep your sorry ass in Cali!!!!
Forward together. One of the most pathetic self defeating , victimized statements you can say. Something straight out of a liberals mouth. Most likely the author of this post is a liberal. Ohio State has become a weak team. Egos out of control.
Thank god we don’t play Northwestern or UCLA this year.
Ryan Day makes every game a struggle session. I for one am tired of it.
Maybe we should have paid Jim Knowles?
Just an absolutely embarrassing f****** loss to a dog s*** usc tram. U s e’s defense is f****** trash, and you made em look like f****** world beaters, you guys suck c***. Ryan day, you’re a f****** a** clown, and this quarterback you put in, there’s a f****** bum
What are we paying this NIL money for?
Ryan day has lost more qbs who have proven to be elite than he has played actually fact.
Fuck yeah double digit points BABY! Finally about fucking time
A classless niggerish low iq coaching staff
Yall fucking suck Ryan day deserves to watch his wife get bent over
O line: five fags. it’s not a line it’s a gang bang
Remember when we had an offensive line that didn’t completely suck?
Ryan Day doesn’t call plays, he doesn’t coach the QBs, he doesn’t manage the clock, he doesn’t understand how to make go/no-go decisions, and he doesn’t even go on recruiting trips anymore. What does he do here?
Hang the banner nigga time to sleepwalk to 10-2 and lose to the only two good teams
Does this team know how to manage a clock?
Have we forgotten how to tackle?
Have we forgotten how to block?
Ryan day is going out like such a pussy ass coward. Arthur Smith shouldve been fired at half. Fuck this gutless program
You can tell a competent coach quickly, especially in this day and age. We do nothing well and are the most penalized team in the conference. His side of the ball is atrocious.
How can you be a top 5 program with no 2nd string quarterback?
Fuck this entire team and coaching staff
We’ll be lucky to play in the toilet bowl. Call dude wipes
Down 18 and he’s calling 3 straight runs up the middle and then punting. Fucking coward
It happened again. Really. Up with three minutes left, and after leading all game long, Matt Rhule choked again and gave 14 points in 90 seconds to the visiting Washington Huskies. And UW genuinely looked terrible most of the game too.
Like an old diesel, he’s gotta get warmed up. LOL.
I know everybody is upset but look at the bright side…At first you lose big. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose close. And then you lose clo…
Matt Rhule has 35 wins across the NFL and college since 2019. In that span, he’s made $61 Million. That’s $1.74M per win. If Nebraska cuts the check on his $63M buyout, that climbs to $124M total—or $3.54M per win. Build his agent a statue. Nobody has ever built more generational wealth out of one good Baylor season in sports history.
During Nebraska’s current losing streak, it has trailed for a total of 9 minutes, 11 seconds in 180 total game minutes. That includes 28 seconds against Oregon and 90 seconds against Washington.
Just so we’re aware we dressed cute agaisnt usc last year. And blew the game and lost. Fire the ozempic dipshit
How is this real life? You really do just want us to stop watching and coming to games don’t you? It’s fitting that Halloween is the day I have stopped giving a fuck.
Why is everyone pretending we didn’t get absolutely man handled at home by the 2nd worst team in the conference with a dead in the water coach? This is the exact time you need a fanbase to be toxic, it’s beyond unacceptable. And we did it in 90 seconds too,
Our OL is worse every game, and gets worse with every play in every game
This team couldn’t take a belt to their own ass.
Better give Rhule a contract extension so we can fire him after next week. Might as well keep the clown show records consistent. Keep that streak of contract buyouts going.
Nebraska is the ONLY FBS team to lead entering the fourth quarter in every game this season.
The Huskers also lead the FBS in losses (3) after holding a lead at the start of the fourth quarter. pic.twitter.com/twRRDffKfY
You deserve to have trash thrown at you. All you give us is trash product.
Refund every fucking fans money. If you had any fucking decency at all you would refund every poor son of a bitch who gave up their Halloween to watch that. Fuck off with your night games. Fuck off with your black outs. Fuck off with Matt Rhule. This is complete bullshit
Fuck literally everyone involved with this fuck ass program. Fucking losers.
There is a curse at play for Nebraska, and I can only assume it has to be some kind of retaliatory black magic from someone who was a fan of one of the many teams Nebraska routinely tore limb from limb in the 80s and 90s.
Matt Rhule would resign if he wasn’t so stuffed full of adderall and GLPs.
My parents had sex and made me be born and raised in Nebraska so that I’d have to suffer this terrible football team’s nonsense. I need to make a new appointment with a therapist to discuss the bitter feelings I now have towards them. And the hatred I feel for Husker football.
The Michigan fans that outnumbered Rutgers, should’ve stormed the field.
JFC, the LT and fell on his face (well, his ass) while he was kicking out and allowed a free rusher with a clear shot. Looks like he tripped on the motion receiver.. In game 7.
Seeing Minnesota and Indiana nail SIXTY YARDERS back to back when our kicker genuinely couldn’t hit water if he fell out of boat. Sad face.
This coaching staff, offensively, took a diamond and turned it back to coal.
Jason Beck is Brian Ferentz reincarnated. Now survive seven years of his offense. Your liver won’t.
Pack it up boys see yall in August
Its bad when your team wins on the road but still feels like a loss.
Rutgers is one of the worst defenses in the country and we barely mustered 28 points and won by 7.
This shit looks bad.
You make me want to do heinous things to myself
Literally the most embarrassing win I’ve seen.
Rutgers lost by 28 at Northwestern last week, and we still needed a touchdown with 4 minutes left to get out of Piscataway.
just a touchdown better than Rutgers…genuinely perfect description of Michigan Football
This is disgusting football. Mich is fucking laughable
Good grief. We were competing for championships 3 years ago. Thank you Harbaugh for the natty but your lack of recruiting is really apparent now.
I feel like we were so scammed by this staff man. We shouldn’t be this bad and our fundamentals shouldn’t be this bad
Loved letting the clock run down to call a timeout then run the ball to call another timeout to run it again before half smh then a coach who doesn’t even know of we had a turnover
Staff fulla niggas with more ass than Nicki

We’ll be back tomorrow with our regular Meltdown. I’m giving this as an early treat to y’all, because there were just so damn many tasty, bitter losses this weekend to celebrate.
So, revel in the misfortunes of others (and ourselves), even as we know we are one bad game away from being featured on these pages…and pray to Football Loki we’re not on this page again next week. #fLSU
I’m Erik. I help run this place. Decade-plus editor/editor in chief at Vox’s Roll ‘Bama Roll. Lawya by day. Recovering black metal musician. Member: AP, FWAA, USBWA. Voter: Maxwell, Outland, Nagurski, Outland and others. It’s not racist if it’s funny.
Presumably, the half nigger part is useless and dumb as a coach.
Hate to be the resident racist; I consider myself race aware, but as a working musician I really don’t care what race a person is so long as they can do their job.
I was a former professional musician in a past life, I understand exactly what you mean.
In a blackened death metal band, one of the whitest genres on earth, and certainly one of the most dude forms of music, we had both a female singer at one point and a black drummer.
If you can do the job, that’s all that matters. That’s all that should ever matter.
Ohio State, damn. They were going through it.
OSU may not be a football champion but that meltdown should be on a bronze plaque in front of the stadium
The most racist person I have ever met in my life was from Cincinnati. OSU fans being racist did not really surprise me.
Their comfort in dropping a hard R did
There are more Confederate flags in Southern Ohio than the state of Louisiana, I’ve lived in both.
“It’s fitting that Halloween is the day I have stopped giving a fuck.”
I don’t know why this is so funny, but I personally thank this Husker fan.
I don’t even know what that’s supposed to mean, but it was funny
poetry
admit it: how many times have you felt that in the last couple of years? Far more than should happen when you are in Alabama fan, that’s for sure.
Man, I was at South Carolina last year surrounded by SC fans. How bizarre to feel relief rather than exaltation.
I felt that way leaving the Texas A&M game. That’s why I wait 24 hours to do the autopsy and can watch the all 22.
And they call us racists in the south…..
They are coming with a hard R and everything.
that was so out of left field, and I don’t even know what it’s supposed to mean. That he’s not even good enough to be a whole black person?
I need someone a lot more racist than I am to explain it to me

Imagine typing this sentence a year ago:
And today on Twitter, some Auburn fan was trying to say that the portal and NIL have not changed the face of college football Forever
