what a question

Holly and I are coming. 2 Hook ‘Em 🤘🤘🤘

Day says penalties really put Ohio State behind schedule in the Cotton Bowl. Ohio State had nine penalties for 75 yards. Day added that he has to ensure that the right players are touching the ball and mentioned Jeremiah Smith's name immediately after.

Day was asked how Matt Patricia having faced Peyton and Eli Manning in the NFL prepares him for facing Arch. "That has nothing to do with this game or playing Texas."

"This week will come down to avoiding distractions... we have to make sure we are avoiding distractions better than Texas."

Day on the personality of his 2025 team: Competitive, edgy. Day says they like competing and being on the field with one another. "A lot of leadership has risen here." Says the young guys are starting to figure things out inching closer to the season.

"If they ever recorded what was said on those headsets, you could make a lot of money." Day joked.

Day says they will likely lean on guys who have played before for the Buckeyes, but that he is not opposed to young freshmen or new faces seeing the field in a game of this magnitude.

Day says he believes OSU has developed strong depth on the DL. There isn't one guy but more a full rotation that he expects to see trotted out this weekend.

Day highlights organization and preparation for play calling. Says that is what he focuses on in the week leading up to games is organization.

Day says even with the tablets on the sidelines, most real adjustments are made at halftime. Says that is where his staff must be ready to make adjustments and changes.

Day: "Steve (Sark) is a great play caller, always has been." Says he expects Texas to get Arch into a rhythm early while assessing what is happening on the Buckeyes. Day syas he is aware of the Texas opening script having a lot of success and the Buckeyes will need to come ready to play.

Day: It is great for college football to have this game on opening weekend. I have great respect for Sarkisian and his program and the way he coaches.

Day says Sayin is getting more and more comfortable each day in practice.

Day on Julian Sayin: "He has a good group of guys around him. He has a good defense, he has a good special teams, good offensive line, good skill guys, he needs to lean into them and go find a way to win the game."

No word on kickoff or punt returners for the Buckeyes.

Day on who his K/P will be: Both incumbents have K Jayden Fielding and P Joe McGuire are expected to be the guys for the Buckeyes this weekend. There was a competition at both spots in fall camp.

Wanted to bring some updates from the Ryan Day press conference ahead of the Texas–Ohio State season opener this Saturday. Notes and quotes in the comments below.

Boys and girls, it is going to be ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL on Saturday. High of 70, slight breeze, no rain and plenty of sunshine.

Great quote

Wouldn’t surprise me one bit. I watched every one of Arch Manning’s throws from last year. He’s better than I thought. However, it seemed like anytime he faced pressure he just threw the ball into double or triple coverage or rushed a short pass that was off the mark. That’ll come with experience so hopefully he hasn’t learned to deal with pocket pressure in the off season or it could be a long day for Ohio State.

all fun games for me over here. appreciate your contributions here.. best of luck! i'll go 23-14
