Ryan Day saw plenty to like — and plenty to fix — in Ohio State’s 34-0 win over Wisconsin.

Day praised Julian Sayin’s efficiency through the air and Carnell Tate’s playmaking brilliance but admitted the Buckeyes “left some meat on the bone” in the run game and called the team’s special teams breakdowns “ridiculous.” Still, Day said Sayin’s command of the offense, Tate’s growth into a “first-rounder” and the defense’s second shutout of the season showed the team’s potential as it pushes deeper into October.

Later, Tate called Sayin “the truth” and “a Heisman winner,” crediting the freshman quarterback for giving him chances to make plays downfield.
