Ohio State fires special teams coordinator Robby Discher.
Ohio State · Oregon · NorthwesternThe Buckeyes lost to Oregon 41-28 on Saturday in Columbus, dropping to 6-3 Even if the Buckeyes win their final three remaining regular-season games, the odds of reaching the Big Ten championship game and sneaking into the CFP field as an at-large bid are slim. The Buckeyes have been without starting quarterback Julian Sayin in the last two losses, as he remains out indefinitely with an elbow injury.
“We were able to get no rhythm on offense,” Day said Saturday following the loss to Oregon. “That put the defense in some tough situations.
… It all starts with the staff and then it goes to the players. There needs to be accountability for all of it.”
Ohio State has Northwestern, Nebraska and Michigan remaining on the schedule. The Buckeyes are 6-5 in their last 11 games.
