Ohio State's Jared Sullinger says he was spit on after loss at Wisconsin

When the final buzzer sounded and Wisconsin's upset of No. 1 Ohio State was complete, the crowd at the Kohl Center went into a frenzy.

Fans rushed the court to celebrate with the Badgers, who had just ended the Buckeyes' run at an undefeated season.

But the emotion of the moment may have gotten the best of some fans, especially if you ask Ohio State freshman Jared Sullinger.

After the game, Sullinger went to his Twitter account to offer some advice to Buckeyes fans.

#BuckeyeNation if you ever decide to rush the court. Don't ever spit on the opponents. Just a lil tip from me to you.

Shortly after, Sullinger followed up with this:

To be spit on is just nasty. On top of that in my Face. Before and after the game. Smh. I just kept walking. More fuel to the fire.

Sullinger, who tallied 19 points and 12 rebounds in the Buckeyes' loss and is a candidate for player of the year, did not let his emotions get the best of him and simply walked off the floor. There's something to be said for that, especially coming from a freshman.

And you can bet Sullinger has already circled March 6 on his calendar. That's the final day of the regular season when the Badgers make a visit to Ohio State in the regular season finale.

I hope this gets blown out of proportion.

Sullinger has been a whiny bitch all season.  I hate whisky, but no chance this happened.

No chance this happened?  Have you ever been to a UW-Madison game?  In the opposing teams colors?  It is not just plausible, but probable.

This is the same group of fans that used to throw quarters at football players.  Of course it could have happened.  Doesn't mean it did, but certainly possible.

Exactly.  Bucky fans aren't exactly the angelic sober crowd from BYU.

Every fan base has a-hole fans.

Some Bucky fans are crying that Sullinger knocked a student over getting off the court. Did anyone see this?

Can't say I blame Sullinger if a kid is running near me.

Not to mention the classy fanbase that "thought" up the "F*** You, Eat S***!" chant.

I cant either. If you get close enough to an opposing player on the playing surface, you deserve to get jacked.
