Ryan Day Says Justin Fields’ First Touchdown Pass to Chris Olave in 2020 Sugar Bowl is His Favorite Play Call With the Buckeyes

Since he arrived on Ohio State's campus in 2017, Ryan Day has called thousands of plays for the Buckeyes. One stands out above the rest.

In the latest episode of "Big Noon Conversations" with Joel Klatt, the FOX college football analyst asked Day, who relinquished head playcalling duties to new offensive coordinator Chip Kelly this offseason, to share his best or favorite play call across his seven years in Columbus.

Day's initial answer was comedic.

"C.J. (Stroud) and Jaxon (Smith-Njigba) were so on fire in that Rose Bowl. Everything was working," Day said with a laugh.
