It was another winning press conference for Ryan Day on Saturday night. Ohio State had an impressive performance in front of a national audience, defeating Penn State 38-25 in Happy Valley to improve to 2-0. The loss dropped Penn State to 0-2.

Ohio State started off hot, jumping out to a 21-3 lead in the 1st half before Penn State closed the gap to 21-6 at the break. The Nittany Lions offense was starting to click in the 2nd half, but the defense couldn’t get the stops necessary to get closer than 8 points to the Buckeyes in the final 30 minutes.

Justin Fields was spectacular, completing 28-of-34 passes for 318 yards and 4 touchdowns in the win. Ohio State’s rushing attack looked solid, totaling 208 yards on the ground, led by Master Teague III who piled up 110 yards and a touchdown on 23 carries.

It was another strong performance for the Buckeyes, despite some hiccups in the 2nd half. Here’s what Day had to say after the contest:
