Ryan Day vs The World
September 26th, 2023 at 4:09 AM ^
An OSU fan who used the term "ironic" incorrectly? I'm shocked, ironically, of course
September 24th, 2023 at 12:30 AM ^
The guy on Fox just brought up Howard Dean, and by that I mean the speech that sank Howard Dean's campaign. Marcus Freeman just had the sort of screw-up that gets people fired on the tarmac, and yet here the world is making fun of the winning coach.
The reality of it is that people can't take Ryan Day seriously. If I was an image advisor, I'd tell him to get rid of the beard. No-one can take a man seriously who dies his beard, so he can look like that guy on Yellowstone.
September 24th, 2023 at 8:21 AM ^
But do you think that this is worse than any cooky ass shit that Jim has said in his tenure at UM?
Who the fuck cares? When Jim says or does something we can debate Jim's behavior. Whataboutism is tiresome and irrelevant.
September 24th, 2023 at 8:32 AM ^
Did you use the word tough on purpose when speaking of Notre Dame or is Day already rubbing off on you soft fans? The way your coach acted last night was far from a tough guy. I guess that’s the point.
September 26th, 2023 at 3:44 AM ^
Dude you can't get stuffed on 4th down on two finesse playcalls then gain a single yard and win a game scoring 17 points because the other team's OSU grad coach couldn't count to 11 on two plays in a row and beat your chest over it. That is softness to the highest degree
Also, couldn't help but notice your team has never beaten Michigan since you made an account here. You seem like bad luck
September 24th, 2023 at 12:29 AM ^
"We're going to hang 100 on them"
September 24th, 2023 at 12:39 AM ^
Joe Milton couldn’t beat Florida, who got railroaded by Utah this year. What do you think would happen in 2020 when Day said that and OSU was an absolute wagon? God I love that argument every time you guys bring that up lmao.
September 24th, 2023 at 12:53 AM ^
Not as much as we love shit talking Coach Born On 3rd Base.
September 24th, 2023 at 1:57 AM ^
What dumb ass coach/leader says something like this? He got way outside of his lane and has paid the price since.
But you are HERE defending THAT...seriously?
September 24th, 2023 at 7:08 AM ^
Did PB just use the transitive property and then double down by taking it back three years and apply it a second time on a one player basis to the COVID season?
I’m not sure who is more unhinged at this moment, Day or PeacefulBuck.
September 24th, 2023 at 9:05 AM ^
Maybe Day is PeacefulBuck!
September 24th, 2023 at 8:43 AM ^
I guess we will never know PB but hey I guess you guys are almost halfway there if you add up the last two years. You are defending your coach throughout this whole thread because he is constantly acting like a tough guy. The reality is no one looks at Ryan Day or his team as tough. Finesse, good offense, excellent receivers, elite QBs (except this year). These are some of the things people thing of Ryan Day’s teams. Tough is not one of them so just stop trying to defend it.
September 24th, 2023 at 11:21 AM ^
Also known for...conveniently mentioning the flu and not loving playing in cold weather.
Based on actual Things OSU players have said...
Can't imagine why anyone would question their toughness :)
September 24th, 2023 at 7:29 PM ^
The hang 100 comment is still funny because your team has gotten absolutely smoked by Michigan since that time.
If the best thing you have going for you in the rivalry is that you would have won a hypothetical Covid game against half of our team from a few years ago, then that speaks volumes about how far your team has fallen. Cryin’ Day and his Charmin Warriors.
Your QB is just a guy, your o-line can’t be trusted to gain a yard against 11 defenders, and your defense still gets run over late in games. And your coach is borrowing his rallying cry from Detroit, MICHIGAN.
September 26th, 2023 at 3:34 AM ^
Three years since Ryan's quote and OSU has scored 50 points against Michigan. Do you think he'll get to 100 before he gets fired?
September 24th, 2023 at 12:31 AM ^
Ohio State sucks but you guys are fishing. Go Blue.
September 24th, 2023 at 9:07 AM ^
Is it still fishing if the fish jumps up into the boat? Because that's what Day did here.
September 24th, 2023 at 12:55 AM ^
ND was the more physical team and it wasn't even close. Ohio State won because of Freeman's shitty coaching over the final two minutes and because Kyle McCord made some clutch throws and bailed out OSU's front seven, who were consistently manhandled by ND's OL.
September 24th, 2023 at 7:31 PM ^
Clutch, but also lucky his throws to ND weren’t caught.
September 24th, 2023 at 1:04 AM ^
"Ohio versus the World" confuses me.
I lived in Ohio for many years - I know those folks. Most Ohioians think Ohio IS the world, all "culture" (in their minds) ends at the state line.
September 24th, 2023 at 1:12 AM ^
How many guys are even from Ohio?
September 24th, 2023 at 1:12 AM ^
Well many also take the time to cross out the letter "M", so there is that.
September 24th, 2023 at 1:28 AM ^
Urban Meyer still crosses out the M in his own damn name.
September 24th, 2023 at 2:06 AM ^
Ohio, Michigan, Pennysylvania all suck. One state dissing the other is like bragging who is the tallest midget.
September 24th, 2023 at 2:45 AM ^
Michigan has the longest coastline of any state in the Lower 48 and borders four Great Lakes. Yeah, that definitely sucks.
September 24th, 2023 at 10:29 AM ^
How pathetic are you coming to your rival's message board at 2 in the morning to defend your coach having a breakdown on national TV?
September 24th, 2023 at 10:56 AM ^
Ohio is basically Texas Jr.
September 24th, 2023 at 4:00 PM ^
How dare you.
September 24th, 2023 at 3:31 PM ^
September 24th, 2023 at 1:48 AM ^
After that lucky ass win. (Basically ND losing the game not OSU winning the game let be honest). I hate Ryan Day more than ever. What a total ass. He's like in the same league as Bryan Kelly for me.
September 24th, 2023 at 2:19 AM ^
Coach Day mentioning a psat-tense dude like Lou Holtz so soon after a big win like that seems to me like he's not up to his task.
September 24th, 2023 at 3:07 AM ^
Just saw part of the interview.
Posturing - definitely.
Unhinged - maybe.
Brittle - definitely.
Not a good look at all
September 24th, 2023 at 3:16 AM ^
Look… I know you guys hate OSU/Ryan Day. That’s fine, its a rivalry. But his team just went on the road and beat a top 10 team in dramatic fashion. McCord in his 4th start, on the final drive converted 3rd and 10, 4th and 7, 3rd and 19.
The guy has a reason to be hyped. I don’t expect you to like anything he ever says, but his team now has a significant win, and that’s something you all don’t have yet.
With all due respect, I expect you to come into The Game undefeated and favored at home. But anyone thinking it’ll be a cakewalk is not living in reality.
September 24th, 2023 at 7:59 AM ^
Helped that the other team is coached by someone who's clearly punching 5 weight classes above his level.
September 24th, 2023 at 8:23 AM ^
He had his opponent gift wrap him a victory by playing two straight plays with ten men on the field. That did not help his case when he spouted about how “tough” his team is.
Sure, he can say whatever he wants, but he looked like a jackass.
There is no world or alternate universe that exists where you wouldn’t be saying the exact same thing if Michigan just won in the same fashion.
September 24th, 2023 at 8:32 AM ^
If you had any self-awareness you'd be embarrassed by your coach's behavior.
I do not condone everything Jim says and does. I've known Spartans who did not like everything Dantonio said and did.
That doesn't mean you have to publicly bash him, but coming here with this weak (or soft) defense of him is silly.
Enjoy the win. It was fun college football.
September 24th, 2023 at 8:37 AM ^
Come on. After that pounding in 2021, Day and OSU complained about flu. After 2022, the complain about was about 5 plays. OSU and Day cannot accept when they are beaten. So, don't tell us about how you have beaten ND on the road. ND is a good team and with a better coach, they would have handled OSU better.
No one here thinks OSU game will be a cake walk. Have you read our comments here. We don't think MSU game will be a cake walk. We know we will get everyone's best shot. Look how tough Rutgers played us.
I think it is going to come down to fourth quarter against bucks and the dreaded running game. Let us see who can prevail.
September 24th, 2023 at 9:57 AM ^
Dude, it's not that he's hyped over beating a top 10 team on the road - he should be hyped for that! It's what he actually said in context to the game, which was horrible. He called out a talking head that has FAR more coaching accomplishments than he'll ever achieve. He said his team has ONE bad half in two years of football. (Really? Which one was that?) He had to tell the world how tough his team is because the entire world recognizes that it's soft. (It still is soft, BTW...) OSU against the world? They get every call in the books and were gifted a CFP appearance JUST LAST YEAR!
He had no reason to say anything that he said. He's a joke. I get that he's your coach, so enjoy him. But don't expect us to buy in to it...
September 26th, 2023 at 3:54 AM ^
One bad half in two years yet he has 4 losses in that span. Seems like OSU needs to either raise their standards for what a "good half" of football is or maybe find a new coach entirely.
September 24th, 2023 at 10:00 AM ^
That was hype? Can't imagine listening to that guy and then feeling right about the game.
September 24th, 2023 at 11:12 AM ^
The way Notre Dame ran it down their throat in the second half gives me a lot of warm fuzzies, bad play calling in their last drive tanked them.
and McCord looks to be a good QB, but I can also tell he isn’t the world beater All American that Haskins thru Stroud were either. (Also, the Meyer guys, but they were good for different reasons)
I have a good feeling about the game after watching OSU against a comparable opponent to Michigan.
Still get nervous about your receivers and the thought of a coverage bust, but other than that, I feel good. As good as I have since 2003 or so.
September 24th, 2023 at 11:41 AM ^
I don't hate Day at all. I wish he'd get a big contract extension.
Congratulations on your TOUGH team inching past the goal line on two tries against a 10-man defense!
September 26th, 2023 at 3:51 AM ^
Probably should've given McCord some reps earlier then if he's so inexperienced. He and JJ are from the same recruiting class and yet JJ has 4 times as many career wins, two more division titles, two more conference titles, a playoff start, etc., etc. Shouldn't have spun your wheels with that Stroud dude who never won a meaningful game or championship in his life, could've used those reps on a dude with 0 passing TDs in the state of Indiana through two games this year
September 24th, 2023 at 3:24 AM ^
Is it just me, or does his whiny tone and cadence remind you a bit of Richard Shermans Crabtree rant with Erin Andrews. "Crabtree!!! Don't talk to me!!!'
September 24th, 2023 at 6:51 AM ^
“And then we’re going to Washington DC to take over the White House…woooo”
September 24th, 2023 at 7:51 AM ^
What an asshole
September 24th, 2023 at 7:57 AM ^
"Third base" is a pathetic, whinny loser. Thought he was going to challenge Tappen to a fight to prove how tough he is.
September 24th, 2023 at 8:33 AM ^
I thought there was a rule that you don't respond to an individual slight in a public forum. This is where you recognize everyone that contributed to this fine moment and then shut up.
Not exactly a Harbaugh response.
