Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller responded on Wednesday to harsh comments from Michigan State linebacker Taiwan Jones.

The war of words started when Jones – speaking to local reporters on Tuesday – labeled current freshman quarterback QB J.T. Barrett as a “way better quarterback” than Miller.

On Twitter, the two-time Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year winner simply responded: “Never heard of the kid #34. 4 years unnoticed.” Miller added to the jab by including a picture of a blank screen.

Here’s the full quote from Jones speaking on Ohio State: "I feel like with this offense that Barrett works better in this offense. I feel like he has a better arm, he's a way better quarterback than Braxton, but I feel like it's a big challenge for us and we're actually looking forward to it and working this week in order for us to be successful against this offense.''

Barrett's 23 TDs leads the Big Ten by seven over Michigan State's Connor Cook and is tied for eighth nationally. He also has run for 496 yards and six touchdowns. Barrett is on pace for 3,016 yards and 37 touchdowns in 13 games. The single-season school record for TD passes is 30 by Troy Smith in 2006.

Jones, who is in his third season at Michigan State, had five tackles in Michigan State's 34-24 win over Ohio State in the 2013 Big Ten championship game.

Miller, meanwhile, injured his shoulder in August and is out for the season.
