Ryan Day spoke after Ohio State's 14–7 win over No. 1 Texas, praising his young stars while stressing there's still plenty to improve.

In today's Daily Buckeye Blitz, we break down:

• Julian Sayin's debut: graded a champion, "never flinched" in his first start

• Jaylen McClain's "excellent start" at safety alongside Caleb Downs

• Phillip Daniels winning the right tackle job + OL protecting without giving up a sack

• James Peoples & CJ Donaldson rotating at RB

• Day's call for more explosiveness on offense and his self-criticism late in the game

• Will Kacmarek's emergence at tight end

• How NFL development remains central to Ohio State's recruiting pitch

🔥 A massive win in the Shoe, but Ryan Day says the Buckeyes still have "miles to go."
