One point in Austin, and the room has already filed Ryan Day's fourth quarter under familiar evidence.
The emotional rollercoaster
Ohio State fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Ohio State went to Austin and left with a 23-24 loss, which is the kind of margin that keeps a fanbase awake doing arithmetic until sunrise. The fourth quarter was the turning point, and the verdict arrived fast: an "absolute coaching disasterclass in the fourth quarter," with a smaller chorus insisting the team was "absolutely choked by Ryan Day." Misery jumped from 24 to 74 in seven days. At 1-1, the season isn't gone, but the margin for error just got measured in a single point.
