Ryan Day's quarterbacks at Ohio State weren't built in one day, but Julian Sayin certainly got off to a good start in his starting debut.
Not counting Will Howard, who played four years at Kansas State before transferring to Ohio State for the 2024 season, five different quarterbacks in the Ryan Day era have made their debut as a full-time starter in a season opener, with Sayin being the latest to do so.
All five quarterbacks have not only led the Buckeyes to victory in those games, but they have performed well in victory, with numbers ranging from eye-popping stats to mistake-free football and everywhere in between.
