Ryan Day calls one part of Ohio State’s season opener a 'disaster'

The No. 1 Ohio State Buckeyes ran over Ball State with a 56-3 blowout victory in Week 1. 

Ohio State scored 14 points in each quarter. Julian Sayin threw for 320 yards with three scores, and three Ohio State QBs saw playing time, with each of them throwing a touchdown. 

Heisman Trophy candidate Jeremiah Smith broke out with eight catches for 151 yards and two touchdowns. 

Yet, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day said one part of the opener was a disaster. 

"The kickoff returns were a disaster, so we gotta get that fixed," Day said, via Chase Brown of 11 Warriors. 

Why Ryan Day thought Ohio State's kickoff returns 'were a disaster'

To be fair, Ohio State only had two kickoff returns in the entire game, both coming from Legend Bey. 

Bey returned both kicks for a total of 26 yards, with the longest being a 16-yard return. 

Day made those comments likely because Bey brought the kickoffs out of the end zone instead of signaling for a touchback, as the Ohio State coach said after the game.
