Day blasts Big Ten refs after close Ohio State win

Ohio State head coach Ryan Day has lodged a formal complaint with the Big Ten conference regarding officiating during the team's recent 19-15 victory against Indiana. Day specifically cited several instances where he believes pass interference calls should have been made on plays involving receiver Jeremiah Smith. These plays have been submitted to the conference for review.

While Day acknowledged that accountability measures were taken, he expressed that the timing of these resolutions can feel inadequate. The game itself was tightly contested, with Indiana nearly scoring a go-ahead touchdown in the final minute, a play that was ruled out of bounds. This victory also served as a form of payback for a previous loss to Indiana.

Compounding these concerns, quarterback Julian Sayin suffered an arm injury during a touchdown pass and will be sidelined indefinitely. Freshman Luke Fahey finished the game and will now compete with Tavien St. Clair for the starting position. The Buckeyes, currently 6-1 overall and 4-0 in conference play, are preparing for their next game against USC on October 31.
