The back-and-forth between Ryan Day and former Notre Dame head coach Lou Holtz that started before Ohio State played the Fighting Irish in 2023 continued on Wednesday.
First came a story from the Toledo Blade in which Holtz divulged his thoughts on last year's tiff, where he said the Buckeyes had a problem with the physicality of certain teams and the Fighting Irish's toughness would win them the September matchup. After Ohio State won 17-14 in South Bend, Day fired back, saying "I'd like to know where Lou Holtz is right now" in his postgame interview with NBC.
