Former Ohio State QB Kyle McCord summed up his thoughts on the Buckeyes' loss to Michigan, and Syracuse's upset of Miami, with four words:

On Saturday, McCord led Syracuse to a 42-38 upset of No. 6 Miami, throwing for 380 yards and three touchdowns with no interceptions against the Hurricanes. Day and Ohio State, meanwhile, fell short against the Wolverines once again, and McCord's replacement — Kansas State transfer Will Howard — had one of his worst performances of the season.

At Ohio State, quarterback C.J. Stroud was beloved despite never beating Michigan football. That’s in large part due to leading a vaunted offense that was often firing on all cylinders — even in The Game. But his replacement, Kyle McCord? He never stood a chance.
