Halfway through the season, Ryan Day says he’s still learning about his No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes and may find answers Saturday against Penn State.
Purdue's TJ Sheffield makes a catch against Ohio State's Josh Proctor during the second half of an NCAA college football game, Saturday, Oct. 14, 2023, in West Lafayette, Ind. Ohio State won 41-7.
That the Buckeyes’ identity isn’t fully formed yet is “probably something you can say about a lot of teams right now across the country,” Day said this week. Statistically, the Nittany Lions have the best defense in the land. The Buckeyes defense is also ranked in the top 10. Penn State’s only win against a ranked team came in Week 4 when it routed then-No. 24 Iowa 31-0. The Buckeyes’ signature win was a 17-14 thriller over then-No. 9 Notre Dame also on Sept. 23.
