- OL/TE: Yesh in saw that 100% bet that was a Art Smith push.

- OL: Art/Day need to stick to what this OL is best at : Inside zone and gap scheme/counter.

- OL/TE: We need to see if our OL has better starter options.

- OL: No they haven’t hit keep pushing the same be in every argument trying to turn everything into it’s all on oline not the big picture.

- OL: This game shouldn’t tell much and if it does, that would be sad.

- QB/OL: Our OL, QB, DE, WRs, safety, and our 25 year old RB all say “Hi”.

- In Tuesday's press conference, Ryan Day said DE Zion Grady's and OT Phillip Daniels' injuries were not expected to be long-term, but their availability for Kent State depended on how the week progressed. Neither was cleared to play in that update. - Day said Ohio State completed only two of 12 second-half passes at Texas and needs to involve receivers beyond Jeremiah Smith while establishing a more consistent run game. Several concepts began with Smith before progressing elsewhere. Day attributed the lost rhythm to shared quarterback, receiver, protection and coaching execution, not Julian Sayin alone. - Ohio State misidentified some protections and allowed free rushers against Texas, although Day thought the line handled many twists and movements adequately. A nine-yard loss followed by a sack also damaged one red-zone possession. Protection identification and avoiding negative plays are specific issues to track before assuming the scoring problems are corrected. - Day said Ohio State did not generate enough late pressure on Arch Manning, including poor execution when it attacked on fourth down. He wants ways to involve young defensive lineman Khary Wilder and said linebacker Riley Pettijohn will continue to play more. Those are rotation-development plans, not announced new starters or a fixed blitz package. - Day wants Joe McGuire's placement punts to pin opponents near their goal line rather than leave the ball around the 15. He said inadequate execution could mean going for fourth downs instead, and acknowledged an opportunity for greater aggression on a later fourth down in Texas territory. No blanket fourth-down policy or punter change was announced.

- OL: Played a lot of zone on defense and manning picked it apart when it mattered.

- QB/OL: You need to be able to rely on the OL to control the line of scrimmage and give the Qb time to set his feet.

- OL/DB: I don’t think the call was bad — not like we had great success with slants — JJ one on one is good bet for a big gain, six, or an interference (a flag...

- QB/OL: If it isn't possible, there's quite a lower ceiling than anticipated on what this team can achieve.

- QB/OL: After rewatching the game I realized the Oline played well.

- QB/OL: Ryan Patrick Day can be replaced, and the Ohio State coaching job isn't harder vs TX, BAMA, MI, GA, etc.

- OL/DL: O-line will be Elite by the year .

- OL: if only tOSU had a bunch of returning starters on the offensive line and a whole support staff worth of O line coaches.

- OL: The simple fact is that OSU can't run the ball against good defenses.

- After Ohio State's 24-23 loss at Texas, Ryan Day said second-half offensive drives stalled and the Buckeyes never found a sustained rhythm. He accepted responsibility for the shared game plan and call sheet rather than announcing a play-caller change. The issue he identified was inconsistent execution and finishing, not a newly declared offensive identity. - Day attributed Ohio State's red-zone failures to inconsistent rushing, a sack, and insufficient throwing and catching. He said the staff still needed film review to identify common causes, so the interview does not establish a single blocking problem, an injury explanation, or a personnel replacement. - Ohio State deliberately rotated defensive personnel at Texas, but Day said stalled offensive possessions repeatedly put the defense back on the field. Texas then sustained drives and converted fourth downs. Day described excessive second-half exposure despite the rotation, not a newly shortened defensive depth chart. - Day said Ohio State used drop-eight coverage effectively for portions of the game but could not generate pressure often enough when it needed to, especially late. He said scheme, coaching and personnel would all be reviewed; no specific new blitz package or lineup change was announced. - Ohio State missed a field goal that could have restored a two-score lead. Day treated that miss, the stalled offense and failed defensive stops as a combined fourth-quarter breakdown. He did not announce a kicker change or identify an injury behind the missed kick.

- OL/LB: Our O-Line determines if we win this game.
