The 2019 Fiesta Bowl may not have gone the way the Ohio State Buckeyes wanted it to but that does not mean that the players are not hopeful about the future. Wide receiver Garrett Wilson said that he was sorry that his team was not able to win the 2019 Fiesta Bowl. He, however, warned the other teams that the Buckeyes will come roaring back in the 2020 season. Paris Johnson, who made a verbal commit to Ohio State, also seemed to like what he saw on the field on Saturday. On his Twitter account, he expressed that he looked forward to being on the field with other Ohio State players.
Garrett Wilson reacted to the controversial defeats. He posted, "With that said. Next year everybody’s in trouble.. we’ll be back."
With that said. Next year everybody’s in trouble.. we’ll be back.

With an amazing 2019 campaign, there is nowhere to go but up for the Buckeyes.
More than ever, the Ohio State Buckeyes has proven to be a formidable college football team. Before they stepped into the University of Phoenix Stadium on Saturday, they had a 13-0 record. They qualified for the 2019 Fiesta Bowl after securing the championship in the Big Ten conference, defeating rival Michigan Wolverines.

Much of the credit goes to head coach Ryan Day who completed his first full season this year.
Taking over from legendary coach Urban Meyer was an enormous task but the 40-year old more than met expectations. A former quarterback from the New Hampshire Wildcats, he started his Ohio State stint as offensive coordinator and quarterback coach.
Hate to let Ohio State down.... This season has gave us memories that will last a lifetime. #GoBucks

It was also this year that quarterback Justin Fields became a bona fide college football star.
A transferee from Georgia Bulldogs, he sought immediate eligibility from the NCAA. There was no stopping him since, recording 41 touchdowns in the 2019 season.
Appreciate all the love! Thank you Buckeye Nation for the endless support this year! We’ll be back. ❤️
