His allegiance was put to the test recently when the Missouri Tigers triumphed over the Ohio State Buckeyes. This victory stirred up quite a buzz, with fans throwing shade at the Missouri team – a move that didn’t sit well with Wallace.

In response, Wallace didn’t hold back. He let loose a barrage of sharp retorts, which might ruffle some feathers among Ohio supporters. Wallace minced no words, labeling the comments as downright foolish.
