Ohio State Head Coach Ryan Day Proposes Major Change to College Football Playoff
Ohio State Head Coach Ryan Day Proposes Major Change to College Football Playoff originally appeared on College Football News. Ohio State head coach Ryan Day isn't ready to let the College Football Playoff debate settle, especially not after the Buckeyes won the first 12-team tournament national title in Big Ten Media Days in Las Vegas on Tuesday, Day told On3 that he fully supports a model that would give the Big Ten four automatic qualifiers in a 16-team playoff. It's a stance he has held since the league expanded to 18 schools with the additions of Oregon, Washington, USC, and UCLA. 'I've gone publicly and said that I think we should have four automatic qualifiers from the jump because we have 18 teams, we added those four teams from the Pac-12, and we play nine games,' Day said. 'I think that's the way it should be.' The debate over how many playoff spots each conference deserves has remained a sticking point this offseason. While the Big Ten and SEC initially aligned on wanting four auto bids each, the ACC and Big 12 resisted. SEC coaches later softened their stance, supporting a 5 automatic qualifier + 11 at-large model pointed to the Big Ten's nine-game league schedule as a factor that should weigh heavily in the discussion. 'We play that Week 9, everybody in our conference has one more loss, you know?' he said. 'You can say, 'Well, you have to win the game.' But if you're playing a team that plays that ninth game, and they lose, now your win maybe against them, maybe it doesn't look as good. It's just not the same.' Ohio State defeated Tennessee, Oregon, Texas, and Notre Dame on its path to the 2024 national championship, proving the Buckeyes could navigate the grind. With a title in hand, Day now wants the Big Ten's structure respected in the postseason conversation.

Three Ohio State football players receive 2025 Big Ten Preseason Honors
The Big Ten Conference released the players included in its 2025 Preseason honors on Wednesday, and as usual, there are a number of Ohio State players included in the 16 names. The Buckeyes tied Penn State with the most players honored, with three each. The three players donning Scarlet and Gray for the 2025 season named to the Big Ten Preseason Honors list are safety Caleb Downs, receiver Jeremiah Smith, and linebacker Sonny Styles. Smith was the only player on the list of names selected unanimously by the media. Smith burst onto the scene last year as a freshman. He hauled in 76 passes for 1,315 yards and 15 touchdowns, putting together arguably the best season by a freshman wide receiver ever. Downs is widely considered the best defensive player in the country and should continue to be inserted all over the field to wreak havoc on the OSU defense once again. He tallied 81 tackles and two interceptions last season. Styles returns for his final season and is looking to build on a breakout year in which he finished with 100 tackles and six sacks. He should be even better this year. Here's the complete list of players receiving 2025 Big Ten Preseason Honors: 2025 Big Ten Preseason Honors Quarterback, Luke Altmyer (Illinois) Outside Linebacker, Gabe Jacas (Illinois) Defensive Lineman, Mikail Kamara (Indiana) Defensive Back, D'Angelo Ponds (Indiana) Offensive Tackle, Gennings Dunker (Iowa) Center, Logan Jones (Iowa) Defensive Back, Koi Perich (Minnesota) Outside Linebacker, Matayo Uiagalelei (Oregon) Defensive Back, Dillon Thieneman (Oregon) Safety, Caleb Downs, (Ohio State) Wide Receiver, Jeremiah Smith, (Ohio State) Linebacker, Sonny Styles, (Ohio State) Quarterback, Drew Allar, (Penn State) Defensive End, Dani Dennis-Sutton (Penn State) Running Back, Nicholas Singleton (Penn State) Contact/Follow us @BuckeyesWire on X (formerly Twitter) and like our page on Facebook to follow ongoing coverage of Ohio State news, notes and opinion.
