It’s safe to say that after three consecutive losses to Michigan in The Game, Ohio State fans are less than pleased with Ryan Day and how he’s coaching his Buckeyes squad.
The Wolverines sealed their 30-24 victory Saturday at Michigan Stadium with an interception with less than 30 seconds left on the clock. And while fans at the Big House erupted to celebrate their team remaining undefeated, college football fans online had some strong feelings and lots of jokes about the Ohio State head coach.
Along with postseason games where championships are sometimes on the line, the Michigan-Ohio State game is one of the most important matchups on the schedule each year. And it’s one that Buckeyes fans expect their team to win annually, and Day just isn’t delivering.
While Day has a stellar record against the rest of a less-than-competitive Big Ten, he is now 1-3 against the Wolverines. Not great if you’re a Buckeyes fan.

Whether or not rumors about Day’s possible departure to Texas A&M are true, fans on Twitter, now X, absolutely roasted the Ohio State coach. He was criticized for not only losing three straight games to Michigan but also for losing to a team without its head coach on the sideline, as Jim Harbaugh finished his three-game suspension.
