Ohio State Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day is facing scrutiny following the team's game against the USC Trojans at Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on October 31, 2026. The nature of the criticism has not been specified in initial reports.
Day, who has led the Buckeyes since 2019, walked out of the tunnel before the matchup against the Trojans in what was a highly anticipated Big Ten conference game. The contest marked USC's first season in the Big Ten following their move from the Pac-12.
Further details regarding the specific reasons behind the criticism of Day's performance or decisions have not been disclosed. The Buckeyes program has maintained high expectations under Day's leadership, with multiple College Football Playoff appearances during his tenure.
