Going into the Indiana game, the Ohio State Buckeyes had plenty to worry about. How would the Buckeye's banged up secondary hold up against Ben Chappell and the Hoosier's prolific passing attack? How much would Terrelle Pryor's thigh injury inhibit an Ohio State offense that has relied on his explosive runs when their backs were against the wall? But what seemed like threats … [Read more...] about Ohio State Experiences the Healing Power of the Indiana Hoosiers

Buckeyes Jermale Hines Gives Ohio St. a Coach on the Field
Chicago may be nicknamed "the windy city," but there's another place in Illinois, about three hours south, reknown for powerful wind. (The "Windy City" moniker actually has nothing to do with wind. It actually originated with New York City politicians condescending to Chicago city officials who talked a big game about the 1893 World's Fair). Zuppke Field, at University of … [Read more...] about Buckeyes Jermale Hines Gives Ohio St. a Coach on the Field
#2 Ohio State-Illinois: the Brutally Honest Game Preview
The last three times Illinois beat Ohio State: 2007, 2001, 1999, it was in Columbus. For some reason, the Illini play the Buckeyes much better in the Buckeye state than they do at home. The last time they beat Ohio State in Champaign, Vanilla Ice and MC Hammer were at the peak of their popularity. Whenever Illinois is having a good season, they seem to beat the Buckeyes, as … [Read more...] about #2 Ohio State-Illinois: the Brutally Honest Game Preview

I did a lot of tweeting last year during the Big Ten Tournament last March, and people seemed to enjoy the idea of punching Goldy the Gopher in the head. But sometimes it's not a laughing matter, and people get hurt. This is not one of those times, but this situation is a … [Read more...] about Ohio Bobcat Mascot Attacks Brutus the Buckeye, Gets Dismissed from the Program (Video)
Showdown Letdown: OSU Report and Review
As sequels often do, last Saturday’s showdown between the Miami Hurricanes and the Ohio State Buckeyes failed to live up to the promise of the original—the original, of course, being the two team’s classic 2003 Fiesta Bowl BCS National Championship game. It might have been unreasonable to expect a preseason game to matched one of college football’s greatest title games in … [Read more...] about Showdown Letdown: OSU Report and Review
Buckeyes DeVier Posey: Terrelle Pryor’s Favorite Target
Ohio State quarterback and Heisman candidate Terrelle Pryor has said he's looking for junior wideout Devier Posey one-on-one, and every time he sees that matchup, he's taking it. "He's grown a lot, he sees matchups, he sees coverages and he goes to his best options," the 6-2, 213 pound receiver from Cincinnati said about his QB, and his targeting on him. "So we talk … [Read more...] about Buckeyes DeVier Posey: Terrelle Pryor’s Favorite Target
Mike Brewster: Ohio State’s Leader Up Front
With the multitude of megastar skill position players possessed by the Ohio State Buckeyes, it's pretty easy to overlook the offensive line. And that's the nature of football- OL is the most overlooked position group of all. People like to talk about Terrelle Pryor first, then the tailbacks Brandon Saine and Dan "Boom" Herron, or the linebackers Brian Rolle and Ross Homan. … [Read more...] about Mike Brewster: Ohio State’s Leader Up Front
