Ohio State Names Starting Quarterback Ahead of Showdown with Texas
Julian Sayin won a close competition against Lincoln Kienholz to start for Ohio State, becoming the first Buckeyes QB since 2021 without prior college starts, coach Ryan Day said.
- On Aug. 18, Coach Ryan Day announced Ohio State named Julian Sayin, a redshirt freshman from Southern California, as starting quarterback.
- Amid an intense position battle, Day said Sayin separated himself over the last week of practices, including a scrimmage, with more consistent play over Lincoln Kienholz.
- Over four games last season, Sayin completed 5 of 12 passes for 84 yards and a touchdown across 27 snaps, and he’s thrown 12 career passes.
- Following the decision, the Buckeyes focus on game preparation for their top-five matchup with the Longhorns, as Day said practice reps become harder to divide closer to the Texas opener.
- Sayin will make his debut against No. 1 Texas, facing a challenge tougher than any predecessor encountered.
