Ohio State punter Drue Chrisman has some fun at Michigan’s expense

We were all disappointed at the news that The Game between Ohio State and Michigan was canceled. This will be the first time in over a hundred years that the annual rivalry game won’t be played. And the fans aren’t the only ones disappointed.

Ohio State punter, Drue Chrisman, has long been a fan favorite on Twitter for his viral videos and witty tweets. After finding out the game was canceled, Chrisman lamented about needing that “fifth pair” referring to the gold pants Ohio State players are given upon beating Michigan. Chrisman who is a fifth-year senior already has four pairs of gold pants in his trophy cabinet.

Michigan punter Brad Robbins caught wind of Chrisman’s tweet and jokingly challenged him to a “punt-off”. Never one to miss an opportunity to troll the Wolverines, Chrisman responded in kind.

“Probably wasn’t getting a chance to punt this weekend so ya I’m down,” Chrisman tweeted.

What a great response! Ohio State fans will definitely miss Drue Chrisman’s pinpoint accuracy in burying opposing teams inside the five-yard line, but thankfully his social media presence will live on.
