This heartwarming video will make SEC fans into Ohio State fans for a second
SEC fans have a less-than-loving relationship with the Ohio State Buckeyes, but this moment from their spring game will warm the hearts of even Michigan and Alabama fans.
Ohio State super-fan Jacob Jarvis has been a friend of the program since its playoff run in 2015 where he was on the sidelines for the national championship win.

Though he has been diagnosed with muscular dystrophy, he doesn’t let that stop him supporting the Buckeyes, and they showed some more love during Saturday’s spring game, where they let him score a touchdown.
No one's stopping Jacob Jarvis on this game-winning @OhioStateFB TD run.
Look at that face! https://t.co/73P0UeQloA

Moments like this break down the walls of fandom and show that at some level, we are all the same. It was such a special moment for Jarvis, who was celebrated by members of both Ohio State teams, as well as Urban Meyer.
That’s awesome that they did that for the young man. Very classy OSU.
Okay, moment’s over. I still hate Meyer.
Amen man.
No video will ever make me into an OSU fan for the slightest second. Nice video but OSU and its fan base suck and are not very classy.
