Calls grow for Ryan Day to resign after Ohio State's loss to Oregon
Summary

Ohio State head coach Ryan Day faces increasing criticism following a 41-28 defeat to Oregon on November 7, 2026. The loss marked Ohio State's third defeat in five games against Power 4 opponents, worsening their season record to 6-3. Concerns escalated as the team struggles offensively under backup quarterback Luke Fahey and encounters defensive issues. With three challenging games remaining, questions loom about Day's future, as Ohio State's aspirations for a College Football Playoff and a Big Ten title have likely ended. The Buckeyes' performance has drawn attention for its lack of creativity and effectiveness on both offense and defense.
