Coach Ryan Day and his players have joked about eliminating a screen drill from practice. For a team that doesn’t call many screen passes, why waste time on it?

Friday provided the answer.

Day was asked over his headset what he wanted to do in the end-of-half situation. Against Tennessee in a similar spot, Ohio State ran the ball with Henderson and got 15 yards.
Day was asked if he wanted to take that route again or if he wanted to just take a knee and go into halftime tied with Texas.
“Just run the screen,” Day said. “… Sure enough, it went the whole distance.”
