There was at least one hiccup on an otherwise perfect night for Ohio State on Monday … a golf cart carrying Ryan Day and a few star players crashed into a wall — and the collision was so rough, a bystander had to ask if everyone was all right.
It happened just after the Buckeyes beat Notre Dame, 34-23, in the College Football Playoff National Championship … when Day, Will Howard and Cody Simon were all getting a lift to their locker room.

Video shot by someone in the bowels of the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta shows a woman tried to make a three-point turn in the cart … but couldn’t complete it — and smashed the front end of the vehicle into a concrete wall.
Howard and Simon didn’t seem too rattled — they giggled as they exited the wrecked ride — but Day sure seemed a bit shaken up.
It took the Buckeyes head coach a few moments to get off … which caused one official in the area to ask repeatedly, “Everybody OK?”
Fortunately, seems everyone involved was, indeed, all right … as they all continued on to their postgame obligations.
Golf cart crash aside, it was a great evening to be in the scarlet and gray … they jumped up on the Irish 21-7, and while it got kind of close late in the fourth quarter, they ultimately pulled out an 11-point victory.

Howard and Simon were named the game’s MVPs … and a bunch of celeb OSU fans — including LeBron James — were sure as hell happy to see it.
Congrats, Buckeye nation!
