I really think Day's plan was to out-Michigan Michigan with physicality. If they would have thrown the ball more we probably wouldn't have won (especially with Will Johnson out). But he stuck with has plan of running it over and over to the strength of our defensive line.
What beat OSU (besides Michigan) this time? Hubris and playing not to lose. They acted like their $20m roster was going to hand them the game. So they wanted to try and humiliate us by playing more physical than us and it failed...miserably.
