What happened to my ¤cash?
It's nice to win games with a "pedestrian" effort from a frosh QB who has so much upside potential.
Lord... give it time (that's directed any anyone who is bitching about being 6-1). We may have all thought (and wished) for greater things this year but it evidently wasn't in the cards for the team. Not a doubt exists in my mind that we're just seeing the start of some very special years to come. From TP and from the rest of the team.

I want it and I want it ten minutes ago!!! Go BUCKS!! TP will be fine I do really wish the coaching staff would just let him play and have fun. The athletic ability is something special to watch. I can't wait for the future be here now!!

could just be me, but i don't think its the coaching staff that is holding him back at all. you have to remember he is a true freshman, not a red shirt freshman. the game hasn't slowed down for him yet. but you can definitely see on certain plays its clearly going less than full speed. give it time, the flashes of brilliance from this offense are going to quickly become more than just flashes. consistency. that truly is the key.

Ain’t nobody got time for that
TP's field vision is getting a little better each week.
On a seperate but related note I think a lot of people (me included) have the tendency to get on Tressel about his conservative playcalling, but it is just a smart coach developing a highly talented quarterback the way a qb should be developed. The best way to screw up a young qb is to stick him in a starting qb position in a major college program and expect him to throw the ball 30+ times. He would get the [censored] beat out of him both mentally and physically. TP has so much upside that it is scary. By the time the time the scUM game comes up he could be really scary.

As much as he has progressed from experience, I would venture a guess that we will see an improvement in his passing next week. This was the first week we saw this many deep ball attempts and he will be able to self-scout and improve. His decision making today was much quicker and deliberate today. I felt he looked completely different today than Purdue (possibly the understatement of the week).

Three turnovers which turned into quick TD's were very nice gifts. It will be a differerent story when Penn State comes into the "Shoe". Terrell looked good on alot of his pass plays and the execution seemed to be a good sign of his confidence. The defense seems to be playing with alot more intensity and I hope that can overflow to the offensive side also.

From what I saw of the game, Pryor looked much much better and although he didn't put up eye popping stats he looked more confident, not holding onto the ball etc.
I'm very glad her had this game right before the PSU game.

You are going to experience growing pains with a froshy........he didn't turn the ball over, he is making good decisions out there. With time, his natural ability will come back and take center stage. Have some [censored]ing patience Buckeye faithful!
You hate to rehash a past quote of yourself but I think Pryor started playing today like he is ready to break out and be one of the premiere players in college football. He is getting his moxie back. Today was a start, the lights won't be much brighter than next week. We haven't been on a national stage since USC. Pryor can really make some noise if he plays well against Penn St.
