Ryan Day Responds to Saban's Criticism of Ohio State Defense
News summary

Ohio State football's defense faced significant criticism following their narrow 32-31 loss to Oregon, particularly regarding their inability to pressure quarterback Dillon Gabriel, who was not sacked during the game. Former Alabama coach Nick Saban labeled the Buckeyes' four-man rush strategy as 'antiquated,' suggesting that modern defenses need more dynamic pressure tactics to succeed. In response, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day acknowledged the shortcomings and confirmed that changes are necessary, stating, 'When it doesn’t work, it’s accurate.' Despite having 17 sacks in their first six games, Ohio State ranks only 32nd nationally, raising concerns about their ability to compete against top offenses. The Buckeyes are looking to bounce back after a bye week, focusing on improving their defensive strategies to achieve their season goals.
