Ohio State’s social media team has college football fans scratching their heads a bit with a recent post about the Buckeyes’ bowl game.

Ryan Day’s squad set to face Missouri in the Cotton Bowl. The game is played in Arlington, Texas at AT&T Stadium, home of the Dallas Cowboys.

Fans and media members had some humorous replies to the Buckeyes’ post. Here’s a small sample of those replies:

The “showdown in the desert” is set for Friday at 8 p.m. ET. It will air on ESPN.
