Ohio State coach Ryan Day expressed frustration over the Buckeyes' self-inflicted penalties and turnovers that hindered their offensive performance during the Cotton Bowl, stressing the need for improved efficiency in the upcoming championship.
Day noted that two critical unsportsmanlike conduct penalties on the offense, including a significant one on running back TreVeyon Henderson, led to lost opportunities that the team must overcome.
With regards to star receiver Jeremiah Smith's underwhelming performance against Texas, Day highlighted that mistakes on offense were to blame rather than Texas' defensive strategy, emphasizing the need for better execution moving forward.
Day urged Henderson to control his emotions after an aggressive play led to a penalty, stating, 'He knows that he's got to play with emotion; he can't let emotion play with him,' underscoring the importance of discipline.
