Ohio State's Victory Over Notre Dame Shocks Critics and LeBron James

Former football coach Lou Holtz, known for talking up opponents, made surprising comments about Ohio State's lack of physicality under coach Ryan Day. Holtz's remarks were met with strong criticism from Day, who defended his team's physicality and called out Holtz's narrative as untrue. Ohio State went on to win their game against Notre Dame, with Day's decision to run the ball in the final seconds seen as a response to Holtz's comments. Holtz's remarks provided extra motivation for the Buckeyes.
