- Ohio State Fans Declare QB Luke Fahey 'Awful' Amid Oregon Struggles
It hasn't taken long for Buckeye Nation to come to a conclusion on true freshman quarterback Luke Fahey.
After another underwhelming performance (albeit in a tough spot) in relief of Julian Sayin, the Mission Viejo native is now 0-2 as Ohio State 's starter and the team has likely played its way out of a CFP spot.

Fahey was a three-star recruit coming out of his California high school and is starting over former five-star Tavien St. Clair despite their career projections and measurables.

Ohio State fans make their opinion on QB Luke Fahey clear
Letting their voices be heard after Saturday night's blowout, OSU fans gave their opinions on Ryan Day sticking with Fahey in spite of the 19-year-old's struggles.
"Fahey looks terrible. What does Ohio State have to lose by putting in TSC? The coaches just refuse to play him," a fan pointed out.

"How is Fahey still in as opposed to seeing what another QB can give you?" another asked.
"Ohio State fans love to clown on, but their five star quarterback can't even play over Luke Fahey who's complete (expletive)," a Michigan native replied.
"You'd almost think that Luke Fahey and Arthur Smith passionately despise Jeremiah Smith. This is so disgusting," a user said.
" Luke Fahey (expletive) sucks."

"Not Fahey's fault, but at some point we need to give TSC a shot see if we can get a spark," a Buckeyes fan commented.
Fahey finished with 360 yards, two touchdowns and an interception on 50 pass attempts vs. the Ducks. But those came in garbage time well after the two Bo Jackson scores that gave OSU a 14-0 lead to start the game.
