Ohio State's devastating loss to Michigan puts the Buckeyes at a crossroads, but a College Football Playoff berth remains possible.
If fortune doesn’t favor Ohio State this week, the Buckeyes would head to a New Year’s Six bowl game, probably a return trip to the Rose Bowl.
Day has won 45 of 50 games as OSU coach, but losing two in a row to Michigan ends his honeymoon. The Buckeyes were undisciplined at key times on Saturday. They committed nine penalties for 91 yards and blew key assignments. “We're always going to be aggressive,” Day said of the third-quarter decision. “But I felt like the right thing to do was to punt.”
Asked if the problem was scheme, technique, coaching or personnel, Knowles replied, “All those things you mentioned. You’ve just got to take responsibility. Obviously, the players are hurting much more than me. I’m crushed, but they’re the ones who put their heart and soul into it. They’re the ones I have to be able to look in the eye and talk about all those things you said.”as a Buckeye. It would be no surprise if he opts out of a non-CFP bowl game.
