Everything Ryan Day Said After Unranked USC Pulled Week 9 Upset

Ohio State’s offense rolled up 460 yards, but red-zone failures and defensive breakdowns left them on the wrong side of a shocking loss at USC. Head coach Ryan Day pointed straight to three costly plays and a slew of mistakes for the collapse. The unranked USC Trojans made the most of those mistakes, handing the No. 2 Buckeyes a 30-18 defeat in their Week 9 matchup. It was Ohio State’s second loss of the season, and the result raised fresh questions about the team’s ability to handle pressure with freshman quarterback Luke Fahey making his first career start.
