Five-star 2027 quarterback Brady Edmunds commits to Ohio State.
After back-to-back performances where his team held conference opponents below 20 points, Ryan Day acknowledged what the box scores had shown.
"We almost reengineered the defense," he said of the work he and the defensive staff put in during the bye week following the loss to Oregon. "What I mean by that is, not scrap everything, but ... how do we put our players in the best position to be successful? How are teams scheming us up?"

- How the Ducks exposed the weaknesses of that approach
- Disguising post-snap movement better in the past two weeks
