Summary

  • 24-23 loss to Texas pushed Ryan Day to warn Ohio State that its late-game failures will force "hard decisions" after the Buckeyes let a 20-point fourth-quarter lead disappear.
  • 115-game streaks when leading by 20 points ended Saturday, and Day said Ohio State lost momentum after failing to put Texas away in the third quarter.
  • No. 6 Ohio State now heads into a home game against Kent State still trying to solve a problem that also cost it late losses to Indiana and Miami at the end of 2025.
  • Top-12 road trips to Indiana and USC still loom on a demanding 2026 schedule, raising the stakes for Day's push to make the Buckeyes finish fourth quarters.
