Ryan Day told Julian Sayin exactly how he wants Jeremiah Smith treated: "If he's single-covered, he's open. If he's double-covered, he's sort of open. If he's triple-covered, he's covered." That message lands after Smith torched No. 14 Iowa for 11 catches, 206 yards and two touchdowns in Ohio State's 31-14 win, and it raises a big question heading into Maryland: is Sayin forcing the ball to Smith, or is that simply the right way to play? We break it down, from the Ohio State records Smith is stacking up to the Heisman race and what it means for the rest of the Buckeyes offense. In this video: - Ryan Day's full message to Julian Sayin about throwing to Jeremiah Smith - Smith's 11-catch, 206-yard, two-touchdown game against Iowa - How Smith became Ohio State's all-time leader in receptions, receiving yards and touchdown catches - Why Smith is the Heisman favorite, and where Julian Sayin fits in that race - Whether Ohio State's other receivers can get open when Smith draws the coverage - What to watch when Ohio State hosts Maryland (Saturday, Oct. 10, 4:15 p.m. ET on Big Ten Network) Subscribe to Menace2Sports for daily Ohio State and college football coverage with no filter, and turn on notifications so you never miss an episode.

Michigan's locker room is leaking text messages, and it's getting ugly in Ann Arbor. Screenshots allegedly showing a Michigan group chat have surfaced, with the author reportedly criticizing offensive coordinator Jason Beck, the offensive scheme, and the staff, right after the Wolverines fell to 0-2 in the Big Ten with a 20-14 loss to Minnesota. We break down what's been alleged, what hasn't been confirmed, and what it means for Kyle Whittingham's program. In this video: - What the leaked Michigan group chat allegedly says about Jason Beck and the offense - Why the messages are attributed to tight end Zack Marshall, and what Michigan has (and hasn't) confirmed - The "worse than the Sherrone Moore era" comparison and why it stings - How Michigan's offense looked against Minnesota, and Whittingham's "results are unacceptable" response - What leaks like this say about the state of the Michigan locker room - Whether Michigan's bye week brings "tough decisions" on the offense Note: the screenshots were posted on social media on October 6, 2026. Michigan has not confirmed they are authentic, so everything attributed to the messages is alleged.

Jeremiah Smith just passed Chris Olave. In Ohio State's 31-14 statement win at Kinnick Stadium, Smith hauled in his 36th career touchdown catch to take the Buckeyes' all-time receiving touchdown record from Olave (35), then broke Emeka Egbuka's career receptions record on the same afternoon with an 11-catch, 206-yard, two-touchdown performance. We break down how Smith did it, what it means for his Heisman case, and how Ohio State's defense answered every question about the run game by holding Iowa to just 39 rushing yards, the fewest the Hawkeyes have managed since 2005. In this video: - Jeremiah Smith breaks Chris Olave's Ohio State career receiving touchdown record with TD No. 36, and why the "last Olave record" milestone matters - Smith becomes the first Buckeye ever with back-to-back 200-yard receiving games, one week after his four-touchdown, 217-yard night against Illinois - How Matt Patricia's defense bounced back after the Illinois rushing breakdown and shut down Iowa's ground game at Kinnick Stadium - Ja'Kobi Jackson's first start: 72 rushing yards on 14 carries and a touchdown - Ohio State's first ranked road win of the season and first win at Kinnick Stadium since 2010, as the Buckeyes move to 4-1 overall and 2-0 in the Big Ten - What this win means heading into the rest of Ohio State's October schedule and the Heisman race Subscribe for daily Ohio State breakdowns, Big Ten analysis, and everything Buckeyes football all season long. #OhioState #Buckeyes #JeremiahSmith #ChrisOlave #BigTen #CollegeFootball #OhioStateFootball #Heisman
Kirk Ferentz knows exactly what he's doing, and Ohio State just handed him the blueprint. After allowing 199 rushing yards to Illinois — including 113 to a single running back — the Buckeyes' defensive line walks into Kinnick Stadium against the deepest, most physical rushing attack in the Big Ten. We break down why Iowa is going to run the ball at Matt Patricia's defense over and over and over again on Saturday, whether Ohio State's run defense can fix its gap discipline in time, and what it means for the Buckeyes' playoff hopes if it can't. In this video: - Why Iowa's four 100-yard rushers (Kamari Moulton, Braden Jackson, Xavier Williams, Nathan McNeil) make this the toughest run-game test Ohio State has faced all year - Kenyatta Jackson Jr.'s blunt admission that the Illinois performance was "unacceptable" — and what has to change - Ryan Day's warning that "all it takes is one guy to be out of a gap" against this Iowa offensive line - How Matt Patricia and Larry Johnson are adjusting the defensive gameplan after Sunday film study - Why Iowa's own stout run defense (87.8 YPG, 3rd in the Big Ten) means Ohio State can't just abandon the ground game either - Our prediction for how this trenches battle decides Saturday's game in Iowa City Subscribe for daily Ohio State breakdowns, Big Ten previews, and everything Buckeyes football all season long. #OhioState #Buckeyes #Iowa #Hawkeyes #BigTen #CollegeFootball #RyanDay #MattPatricia
Phillip Daniels is healthy again, and Ryan Day still won't commit to giving him his starting job back. Ohio State heads to Kinnick Stadium this Saturday to face No. 14 Iowa, and the biggest question up front isn't about scheme, it's about who starts at right tackle. Phillip Daniels was Ohio State's starter before a injury knocked him out, and Gabe VanSickle stepped in and played well enough that Ryan Day is now calling it a "good problem to have." We break down Day's actual comments on the competition, what it means that he said Gabe "hasn't done anything to say he doesn't deserve to play," and why this isn't as simple as handing a job back to the guy who had it first. We get into the tape on both players, what Ohio State needs up front against an Iowa defensive front that thrives on physicality, and why this decision says a lot about how Ryan Day runs his program. In this video: - Ryan Day's real comments on the Phillip Daniels-Gabe VanSickle competition at right tackle - Why Gabe VanSickle has earned a real case to keep starting - What Ohio State needs from its offensive line against Iowa's front at Kinnick Stadium - Why Ryan Day calling this a "good problem" tells you how he values competition - Our prediction for who starts Saturday If you want the honest breakdown before kickoff, subscribe and hit the bell so you don't miss it.

Ryan Day just told the world his defensive line needs to step up, and he's not being subtle about it. No. 5 Ohio State (3-1) is heading to Kinnick Stadium to face No. 14 Iowa (4-0) this Saturday, October 3rd at 3:30 PM ET on CBS, and Ryan Day is publicly putting his defensive line on notice after Illinois gashed the Buckeyes for over 500 yards. We break down Day's actual comments about "taking all applications" on the D-line, what that really means for guys like Kenyatta Jackson, Jason Moore, and Eddrick Houston, and why the interior defensive line has been the single biggest question mark on this roster. We get into whether freshman pass rusher Khary Wilder is ready for a bigger role, why the Alabama transfers haven't flashed the way everyone expected, and what has to change before Ohio State walks into a hostile Kinnick Stadium against a bruising Iowa run game. Then we shift to Iowa's side: Kamari Moulton is the kind of downhill, tackle-breaking back that exposed exactly these issues on tape, and if Ohio State's front seven doesn't clean this up fast, this trip to Iowa City could get ugly. In this video: - Ryan Day's real comments on the defensive line and what "taking applications" actually means - Why Illinois exposed Ohio State's front seven for 500-plus yards - The players who need to step up before Saturday: Kenyatta Jackson, Jason Moore, Eddrick Houston, and Khary Wilder - Why Iowa's Kamari Moulton is the exact kind of runner that could be a problem - What has to get fixed before kickoff at Kinnick Stadium This is a defense that has one week to get its act together against a top-15 team on the road.

Hank Brown Has To Beat Ryan Day Next. Hank Brown just knocked off Michigan on the road. Now he's got to do it against a top-five team. No. 14 Iowa hosts No. 5 Ohio State at Kinnick Stadium this Saturday, and it's the biggest game the Big Ten has produced all season. On this episode we break down whether Iowa's low-mistake, run-first formula can actually hold up against a Buckeyes roster with this much talent, and whether Ryan Day has fixed what went wrong on defense after Illinois put up over 500 yards against them. We get into Hank Brown's tape, the receiver who's suddenly become a real problem for opposing secondaries, and why Kirk Ferentz's approach gives Iowa a real shot at pulling off back-to-back upsets over ranked Big Ten teams. Then we flip it around and talk about what Ohio State has to clean up on the road, and why this is not a game Ryan Day can treat like a trap game. By the end we give our real prediction for Saturday afternoon at Kinnick, and what a result either way means for both teams' playoff outlook the rest of the season.
