Ryan Day Set for First Showdown with Mentor Chip Kelly as No. 21 Ohio State Hosts Northwestern
Ryan Day prepares for his first game against longtime mentor Chip Kelly as Ohio State tries to end a two-game skid.
- On Saturday, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day faces his mentor, Northwestern offensive coordinator Chip Kelly, as the Buckeyes host the Wildcats in a Big Ten matchup.
- The relationship between the two spans nearly 30 years, originating when Kelly coached Day at New Hampshire. Northwestern hired Kelly as offensive coordinator after the season, beating Ohio State to his services.
- Both teams enter with six wins and three losses, seeking to snap two-game losing streaks. The Buckeyes maintain slim hopes for the Big Ten title game at 4-2 in conference, while the Wildcats sit 3-3.
- Northwestern quarterback Aiden Chiles leads the Big Ten with a 68.8% completion rate and 23 total touchdowns. Ohio State's defense must contain him to avoid consecutive regular season losses for the first time since 2011.
- Ohio State holds nine home wins against the Wildcats, who have won only once in 23 meetings. This matchup marks Northwestern's first visit to Ohio Stadium in 10 years.
