Ohio State's Run Game Finds Footing Against Western Michigan But Tougher Tests Loom

Focusing on "improvement week" instead of an opponent as the Buckeyes don't play again until September 21 against Marshall, head coach Ryan Day met with the media on Tuesday to discuss his program.

When it comes to improvement, that was certainly the case for Ohio State's running game as the Buckeyes churned out 273 rushing yards and six touchdowns last Saturday against Western Michigan after posting 170 yards on the ground in a season-opening win over Akron.

With the open week, Day and company seek to build off the performance against the Broncos. Asked to reflect on what was different with his offensive line and running game last Saturday versus the opener, Day complemented the group's effort and attention to detail.
