Ezekiel Elliott was not about to let Jim Harbaugh get the last word in the Twitter battle between Ohio State and Michigan on Tuesday.
After Harbaugh sent out a tweet that was a shot at Buckeyes AD Gene Smith, Elliott put Harbaugh in check with this response:

The man is not wrong. Ohio State crushed Michigan 42-13 in Ann Arbor last fall for the Wolverines’ worst loss of the season. Elliott had a particularly awesome day, rushing for 214 yards and two touchdowns.
He may be headed to the NFL, but it’s clear Elliott’s allegiance will always be with Ohio State and against rival Michigan.
And in case you need more background, here’s a full explanation of what led Harbaugh to respond to Smith in the first place.
