Ohio State has had its national championship hopes vanish against Michigan three straight years, but Emeka Egbuka says this is the year the Buckeyes will get over the hump.
For three straight years, Ohio State's season has ended in heartbreak. After dominating the rivalry against Michigan at the beginning of the 21st century and going 17-2 from 2001 to 2019, the Buckeyes have now lost three straight to the Wolverines. All three matchups have been top-5 battles, with Ohio State ranked No. 2 in each. So, the Buckeyes have pretty much seen all national championship hopes end on Thanksgiving weekend since the turn of the decade.
The calls to can Buckeyes head coach Ryan Day have been loud in Columbus, but rising senior wide receiver Emeka Egbuka scoffs at the notion. 'I believe coach Day has been appointed to this role for a specific reason. I don’t believe there’s any accidents in life,' Egbuka told Fox News Digital in a recent interview. 'He’s our head coach, and we’re gonna rally behind him. 'He always has our backs, so the least we can do is have his.
You look at some of the great teams in college football history. They all have great leadership,' Egbuka said. 'They had veteran guys who all know what they were doing and have the best interest in the program in the middle of their heart. The amount of people who decided to come back in my class, I kind of know them on a personal level. And I know the goals they’re out there to seek, and they’re not selfishly motivated. 'They’re great leaders. We have a very veteran team.
