If I’m being a bit harsh/fair to the dissecting the 2025 Buckeye offense - I think the season looks a lot different if they simply had a QB that could see and throw in the middle of the field.
I don’t know if it’s height, vision, design, training wheels, processing speed, coaching safe, or nerves, but Sayin had inexcusable misses - primarily to Inniss but that one to Klare on the Miami opening drive will haunt me. Those open throws make the OL look slightly better.
I don’t think Sayin was quite good enough - which is fine, he was a freshman. But that late in the year, I was expecting more advancement. Again, being a bit harsh but you get high expectations at OSU. Those misses throughout the year and the last 2 games can’t happen.
Kid has zero problems with arm talent (velocity, touch, accuracy) but he has to make the leap in commanding the whole field. Very confident Day will help him and we’re staring down greatness.

This and a veteran OL should make an elite offense again (Arthur Smith or not lol).
