Man, keeping track of college football stats is a wild ride. Today, I wanted to dive into Ryan Day’s record against Michigan. It’s a matchup that always gets people talking, you know?
So, I started digging around to figure out exactly what Day’s record is against Michigan. It took some time, going through game results and articles. Some sources said one thing, others said another. It was a bit of a mess, to be honest.
Gathering the Data
First, I started by looking at the recent games. It seems like Michigan has had the upper hand lately. There was this one game where a Michigan player tried to plant their flag on the Buckeyes’ logo – that was a crazy moment, with everyone pushing and shoving.
After going through a bunch of different sources, I finally got a clear picture. It looks like Ryan Day’s record against Michigan is 1-3. Yeah, just one win and three losses. That’s gotta be tough for Ohio State fans, considering how big this rivalry is.
Analyzing the Numbers
Then I looked into Day’s overall performance at Ohio State. The guy’s got a decent postseason record, 2-4, if you count bowl games and the CFP. They did beat Clemson in the Sugar Bowl in 2021, which was a big win. And they also won the Rose Bowl against Utah in 2022.
- Initial Record Search: Found conflicting information, eventually landed on 1-3.
- Postseason Deep Dive: Discovered a 2-4 record in bowl games and CFP.
- Key Wins: Highlighted the Sugar Bowl win against Clemson and the Rose Bowl win against Utah.
- New Role: Noticed Day handed off play-calling to Chip Kelly.
The Bigger Picture
It’s interesting to see how things are changing for Day. He’s not calling the plays anymore, handing that over to Chip Kelly. That’s a big shift. Only time will tell how that plays out, I guess.
One thing I found out was about the longest losing streak for an Ohio State coach against Michigan. This guy Wilce lost six games in a row to them from 1922 to 1927. Imagine that! He finally beat them in 1928, though.
Anyway, that’s what I found out about Ryan Day’s record against Michigan. It’s not looking great, but football is full of surprises. We’ll see what happens next year!
