Ryan Day made waves at the postgame press conference following Ohio State’s national championship victory, delivering sharp remarks aimed at rival Michigan. Wearing a custom Ohio State-themed shirt emblazoned with “No Asterisk,” Day’s message was clear: their championship was earned without controversy, unlike what he insinuated about Michigan’s title the previous year.
Day didn’t mince words as he addressed critics and celebrated his team’s triumph. “Anyways, it’s always been Ohio against the world, and tonight proved, despite what the haters said, that the world never stood a f***ing chance,” Day said, his tone charged with defiance. “With this victory, my Buckeyes officially win the natty. And unlike those bums from Ann Arbor, ours doesn’t come with an asterisk.”
The pointed comment about Michigan referenced lingering debates surrounding their College Football Playoff trophy, which some detractors claimed was overshadowed by allegations of impropriety. Day’s statement appeared to tap into this narrative, leaving no doubt about where he stood.
Before wrapping up, Day left with one final remark: “See you guys next year.” It was a parting shot, cementing the rivalry’s intensity and his team’s dominance. Ohio State’s championship not only secured their place at the top of college football but reignited the flames of a feud that shows no signs of cooling down.
