Kirk Herbstreit wasn't having it and fired back in defense of Corso: "Huh? Is this a real tweet??? You must have been hacked Ryan. Lee’s point OBVIOUSLY was-it is 2 teams that have been left out-that haven’t found a home yet-NOT the “no one watches Bowl”. Know you’re excited your boys won but DAMN!"
A fired up Dan Lanning (Oregon HC) told his team, in front of cameras set up to catch the moment, "The Cinderella story is over, man. They're fighting for clicks, we're fighting for wins. There's a difference, right? There's a difference. This game ain't going to be played in Hollywood. It's going to be played on the grass, right? It's going to be played on the grass."
Coach Prime acknowledged Lanning's comments: “I got messages. God bless him, he’s a great coach. Take shots. They won.” HC Deion Sanders added, “I don’t say stuff just to say it for clicks. On contrary to what somebody said. I keep receipts. But I’m serious. I analyze and I understand what we’re up against and what we need. One thing I can say, honestly and candidly — he better get me right now. This is the worst we’re going to be. You better get me right now.”
While Sanders didn't fire back, Skip Bayless did and Lanning responded: “I don’t know Skip at all. I’ve never had a conversation with him. I’ve watched him enough to know how often he gets it wrong, so that sounds about right. But, ultimately, here’s what I say. We’re playing to win the game. You saw a 15-second clip from a window outside the house of what happens in a locker room. I know our locker room. I’m in the house 100% of the time. I know how our players felt going into that game—and I know what it takes to motivate our players."
"He has lost to Alabama, Georgia, Clemson, Michigan twice -- and everybody who beats them does so because they're more physical than Ohio State," HOF and National Championship coach Lou Holtz said of Ryan Day and the Ohio State Buckeyes, as a guest on the Pat McAfee Show.
"I'd like to know where Lou Holtz is right now! What he said about our team, I cannot believe. This is a tough team right here. We're proud to be from Ohio. It's always been Ohio against the world, and it'll continue to be Ohio against the world." - OSU HC Ryan Day told NBC moments after his team's last second win over Notre Dame.
Day continued in OSU's postgame presser: "I'm really upset and disrespected about what Lou Holtz said about our team and Ohio State and Buckeye Nation. We're not going to stand for that. We had one bad half a couple of years ago up in Ann Arbor. We did, the second half. Every game we play, we're physical. I don't know where that narrative comes from, but that ends tonight."
When talking about the Washington State-Oregon State game (AKA the Pac-2) on College GameDay, Lee Corso called it, "The Nobody Wants Us Bowl."
Washington State HC Jake Dickert misquotes Corso as saying, "No One Watches Bowl." In his postgame presser he added: "Coach Corso is kind of at the point now where they just give him a sheet, and he reads off of it, and they try to make a joke, but it didn't even make sense. I just know this. We belong. We belong."
Former Wazzu QB Ryan Leaf backed up Dickert on X: "And @CollegeGameDay is supposed to be a celebration of #CFB. Instead, they choose to make it a big joke, and everyone on the panel enables it. Just a bunch of wind socks. #CougsvsEverybody"
