    There defense isn't bad, but I don't think they have enough offense to get it done this year.

    Yeah, they will get a KO or PR for a TD.

    What about the over 28 points per game that they average in the first half leads you to believe that they don't come out like a Ferrari?

    illinois and wisconsin.

    I guess my point isn't really that they don't get out to huge leads as often as in the past. just that when they don't they struggle with teams. With OSU you know in about 1.5 quarters how the game will end.

    Ohio State should win big, but it will be probably a lot closer than what the spread suggests

    Penn State is not happy with a 17 point spread. http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/news?slug=ap-t25-pennst-ohiost

    I also see this being closer than the point spread; mostly because JT tends to play his games conservatively and OSU is coming off a bye week. There will be a little rust and it may take a while to get things going offensively. If that pattern plays out, I see Ohio State pulling away in the fourth quarter for the win.

    Ohio State is 26-4 in November under Jim Tressel.

    Ohio State will receive the ball to start the game.
  • Leonardo
    Boom Herron with two runs for about 17 yards then Pryor hits Posey for 49 yards down to the Penn State 12-yard line.
  • Leonardo
    And once again our red zone sucks. We had 1st and 10 at the 12-yard line and we'll line up for a 26-yard field goal and it's good.

    Ohio State: 3
    Penn State: 0
    11:36 left in 1st quarter
  • Leonardo
    First ever touchdown pass by a Joe Paterno-coached Penn State team in Columbus

    Penn State: 7
    Ohio State: 3
    4:10 left in 1st quarter

    That is an unreal stat

    Wonder if this will change the November offensive playcalling??

    What the heck was mcgloin staring at?

    Our d usually gives up an early score. I'm not at all worried about the d. But would like to see some aggression on offense.

    Simply PATHETIC start
  • Mohican00
    No one looks fired up at all....even the crowd is flat
  • tcarrier32
    i was worried about this game since OSU is coming off a bye week. they need to wake up, or try harder, something right now.
  • KR1245
    They look flat as hell....Bucks better wake up
  • KR1245
    This kid is shredding our defense......its pathetic
  • Fly4Fun
    Our defense is getting no pressure on the kid at the moment. We're getting owned at the line of scrimmage.
  • Midstate01
    I could shred this soft zone. Just like the Iowa game last year. Kid making first road start and your playing soft zone or man on the edges with 8 yard cushion. Now the kid is completely comfortable and has a rhythem.
  • Cleveland Buck
    This defense is awful, the front four is as soft as any I can remember under Tressel., McGloin is the real deal. Pryor pissing down his leg again when facing a real defense. Buckeyes with no chance.
  • osu45804
    Defense letting this piece of shit walk on do what ever the fuck he wants to do ........ Offense is playing like shit too ... GREAT 1st Quarter

    :(

    Not a pleasant Sunday so far!
  • KR1245
    D-line better start to get some damn pressure or the Bucks are in some trouble.

    As a type this the kid completes another pass. GET SOME DAMN PRESSURE
