Wow, not a good day for the offense to lay an egg. Line just got dominated, no rushing game, Will Howard couldn't carry them. I was worried about this game leading up. Like zahn said ttun still has a physical defense and you can't take them lightly. It cost the Bucks dearly. I never thought the Bucks would blow them out and the 19.5 line was an easy bet on the points but never saw them only scoring 10 points. Kicker missed two field goals that would have won the game. Unacceptable! I know it sounds crazy, but Day can still keep his job thanks to the expanded playoffs. I would be shocked they will make a change before their playoff run. In my estimation they have to at least advance to the championship game to do it and not get blown out in the process. We will see, not going to be easy. If I was betting it would be a safe bet they will have a new coach roaming the sidelines next year, but it might make things worse. Even with losing 4 in a row to their bitter rivals Day has won some big games including blowing out ttun his first year and recruits well having highly ranked classes every year. They let coop go ten years of losing to ttun and bowl games before making a change. One thing not in Days favor is the athletic director is not the guy who hired him. The seat would be a little cooler if Gene Smith was still there.

Well Ryan Day got what I guess you would call a vote of confidence from AD Bjork today. Might be the proverbial kiss of death for Day, but with OSU pretty much a lock for the playoffs, removing the coach now would not be productive, until they are eliminated.

I agree, not going to do any good to remove him now. Oh and the University has 37 million reasons to keep him around. That's how much it will cost to buyout his contract. Play the season out and go from there. I'm sure he knows he's got one last shot with this playoff run.
