Ohio State already has as many players in the transfer portal this year as it did all of last offseason, a sign of how college football and OSU’s portal philosophy is changing.
Missouri is a program surging from the grip of mediocrity that features two standout skill players on the offensive side of the football and an above-average defense.
Ohio State opens as a 6.5-point favorite over Missouri in the Cotton Bowl, one of two non-College Football Playoff games that will feature two top-10 teams.
In a teleconference to preview the Cotton Bowl, Ryan Day said he expects "everyone to play" in the Cotton Bowl while Eliah Drinkwitz shared his respect for Day and the Buckeyes.
Ryan Day didn’t commit to Kyle McCord being Ohio State’s starting quarterback next year and left the door open for Devin Brown or Lincoln Kienholz to play in the Cotton Bowl.
11W's Dan Hope and Andy Anders discuss Ryan Day's noncommittal stance on Kyle McCord, how Ohio State will approach the transfer portal and the Cotton Bowl.
Ryan Day expects "more movement" both in and out for Ohio State in the transfer portal and did not commit to Kyle McCord as his starting quarterback going forward.
Texas’ win over Oklahoma State, Alabama’s win over Georgia and Florida State’s win over Louisville effectively eliminated Ohio State from College Football Playoff contention.
Davison Igbinosun, Josh Simmons and John Ferlmann have been starters for Ohio State all year while the Buckeyes’ other six 2023 transfer additions haven’t played much yet.
