I hope Coach Day scrutinizes his own performance as well. He's the play caller, and some were questionable.

Not because they did or didn't work, but because of the game situation and the type of play called. He needs to help his players more than he did today.

1000% agree.

If overthrowing Olave wasn’t a missed touchdown…

Okay and I'm sure Corn missed a guy for 6 too.

RYAN DAY
  • "I think it's great to see our guys win like this. I'm proud of our defense, proud of our special teams. ... It's hard to win in this conference, it's hard to win on the road." Day says "certainly too many penalties on offense, shooting ourselves in the foot."
  • Day says once he reviews the film, he might think the Buckeyes could have won the game "by three touchdowns if we cleaned some things up."
  • Day says he's sure C.J. Stroud wishes he has some plays back.
  • Day says Garrett Wilson will be day-to-day starting tomorrow, and "hopefully we get him back next week."
  • Day says Stroud "forced some things early," and that he will look to see if there were any plays on which he could have run the ball. But Day says he also thought Stroud "did some good things" as well.
  • On opting to throw the ball on the play that Stroud was sacked and stripped late: "If we got the right protection, I thought we had something coming open there."
  • On Smith-Njigba: "He was gritty, in the third quarter he was kind of cramping up."
  • Day says he was "impressed with the defense, and have been all year."
  • Day on Noah Ruggles: "When you kick four field goals and you win by nine, that was huge. ... He's become a weapon for us." Day says "you have to have that in big games when it gets tight ... every point counts, every possession counts."
  • Day says Dawand Jones was "feeling ill" at the beginning of the game, and Nicholas Petit-Frere missed some practice time this week. Day says it wasn't by choice that Ohio State was moving offensive linemen around a lot against Nebraska.
QB C.J. STROUD
  • "Some things weren't clicking in the run game." Stroud says the two turnovers were "blatantly my fault."
  • "Jaxon is the main reason I'm here at Ohio State. Just to see him prevail, I'm happy for him."
  • Stroud says Garrett Wilson is "doing better now" after missing Saturday's game.
  • Stroud says he thought Julian Fleming's sideline toe-top play in the fourth quarter was a reception, "but it's all good."
  • On not running the ball: "If my job was to run the ball, I'd be a running back or something. I throw the ball for a living."
  • "I feel like I played well, but of course you always want plays back." Stroud says the way in which the Buckeyes won the game is "getting to me a little bit more now, I don't know why." But Stroud says he's happy he won. "Definitely want to enjoy the win, but we have to play a lot better."
  • "These are the types of wins you need as a football team. It's not always gonna be pretty. I didn't expect it to be pretty."

Can't ignore that however bad their record is, Nebraska is not an easy out. Defense at least showed up at key times. Long way to go before they're good enough to win a playoff game.

That’s my point. You’re certainly not alone in doing so, but I, personally, don’t like to play the “if ___, then ___”, game when I’m watching sports. I believe it’s a logical cul-de-sac and does nothing for my enjoyment of the game I’m watching or enhance my fandom of buckeye football.

But if it works for you:
