Ohio State's Ryan Day Becomes College Football's Winningest Coach

Ryan Day, head coach of the Ohio State Buckeyes, has achieved a historic milestone by surpassing Knute Rockne to hold the highest career winning percentage in college football at .882, with a record of 75-10. Since taking over as Ohio State's head coach in 2019, Day has never lost more than two games in a season and has consistently won at least 11 games annually, except during the COVID-19 shortened 2020 season. Day led the Buckeyes to a national championship last season and maintains a winning streak of nine straight games, including four consecutive College Football Playoff wins. Reflecting on his record, Day humorously stated it was his last game coaching Ohio State but quickly clarified he intends to continue, attributing his success to the players and staff. Although not yet officially recognized by the NCAA due to a 10-year coaching requirement for record books, Day's winning percentage underscores Ohio State's dominance under his leadership and sets the stage for continued success. The Buckeyes are off to a strong 5-0 start this season, positioning them as a frontrunner for another national title run.
