One significant brain fart... when Jeremiah has one on one and he has the defender pinned to one side of the field.. a throw to the other side of the field is a TD.. Smith knew it, so did Day and Hartline... Sayin gonna see it 50 times in the next 2 days in the film room

He’s easily 16-20 for 160+ yards if we don’t drop a few of those passes. Probably even have a 21-0 type lead too if we are being honest.
He just looked so decisive out there that’s what stood out to me. His quick release is something else too man does he get rid of it quick. He had Simmons coming in untouched and somehow he was able to see it last second and get off a throw that was catchable.
Like Day said, he could’ve handled more vs Texas but with the way the defense was playing the smart move was to run the ball and kill the clock.

Julian's poise and accuracy was impressive. He faced an excellent defense and didn't flinch once. Kudos as well to the OL who gave him time and did not give up a sack. There has not been enough said about that.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Ryan Day came out of Ohio State’s win against Texas sounding like he may have one regret with Julian Sayin
Ohio State wasn’t surprised with what their QB did, though there is more to be had.
Sayin was poised and collected in his first career start, which came against the No. 1 team in the country. He went 13-of-20 for 126 yards and tossed a 40-yard touchdown to WR Carnell Tate. Ohio State did a great job of protecting him, as the true sophomore was not sacked. After the game, head coach Ryan Day admitted that the Buckeyes kept the game plan conservative for their young quarterback.
“When you’re the quarterback at Ohio State and you’re playing No. 1 Texas against one of the top defenses in the country, which we have a tremendous amount of respect for, the one thing we didn’t want to do—and I didn’t want to do—was put him in a bad spot,” Day explained. “It’s just not fair to him. Now, coming out of it, quite honestly, I think he probably could have handled it, you know, but we weren’t going to do that, because we know it’s a long season, and that was the decision that was made.”
Despite the modest stat line, Day came away impressed with what he saw from Sayin.
“I was impressed with his poise. He had a good look in his eye, and what he was saying, what he was seeing, was exactly what was going on,” Day said. “That’s a great sign. I remember CJ’s [Stroud] first start. I remember Justin’s [Fields] first start. And when I say first start, I mean in big games—Dwayne [Haskins], Kyle [McCord], you know. Will [Howard] was different because he had played a lot of football, but when you’re out there for the first time, there are so many things to take into consideration.”
Just sayin': Open up the playbook for Sayin and turn him loose vs Grambling......
