One of the most entertaining parts of ESPN’s College GameDay every Saturday morning is looking at the hilarious GameDay signs. This week, GameDay traveled to Athens, Georgia ahead of the Bulldogs’ showdown with the Auburn Tigers.
The game will feature two top-ten teams, as Georgia comes in ranked No. 4 and Auburn is ranked No. 7. One of the GameDay signs took a shot at Justin Fields and the Big Ten, who are awaiting the start of their season on October 24.
“How does it feel watching GameDay on yo couch @JustinFields,” the sign read, held up by a Georgia fan.
A few hours later, the Ohio State Football Twitter account responded to the Georgia fan’s question.

Ohio State is practicing inside Ohio Stadium on Saturday while other Power 5 conferences continue their regular season, the first step in getting back to competitive football for a team most expect to compete for a championship this fall.
The Buckeyes are ranked No. 6 in this week's updated AP Poll and take on Nebraska to open on Oct. 24.
“What can you say about Justin Fields?” Ohio State coach Ryan Day said of his quarterback after the Big Ten's announcement to return last month. “The way that he’s gone about his business, the way that he’s spoken up and been classy about it, his work ethic this offseason. If you ever get the chance to ask coach Mick (Marotti) about it, it’s been off the charts.
"He’s changed his diet, he’s put extra work in and just to see his leadership and the way he’s handled it, I can’t say enough about who he is.” As for what he wants to accomplish in 2020, Fields set the bar very high.
“Team-wise, we want to first start off with beating The Team Up North and winning a Big Ten championship,” Fields said. “Then we want to go on to win the first Playoff game and win the national championship. So I think those are what the team’s focused on most right now and really we’re just getting better each and every day and treating every day like it’s our last day. So I think everybody’s just working as hard as possible.
“And talking about goals personally, I want to show everybody that I’m the best quarterback in the nation. Of course I want to win the Heisman and do all that stuff, but really the team comes first, so if none of that happens, I’m fine with the national championship trophy sitting in the front of the Woody.”
