I'll grant you that JTs style of offense "helps" the defense to a degree, but still, the strength is usually the side he's NOT heavily involved in. Curious no?
Yeah, and it's not like any of his QBs ever won a Heisman Trophy.

And it's not like his QBs nearly always lead the conference and are among the nation's leaders in QB rating/efficiency.

It's also not as if Tressel has been telling us every presser since he was hired that defense and special teams win games.

Oh, wait. Sorry. You were making a point about irony.
