Uh Oh

The one guy that the Buckeyes could least afford to have injured has gone down. I'm sure we won't hear anything official for a while, but that was a serious injury of some sort.

Boom, Saine and Wells are going to have to step up.


UPDATE: Tressel said post-game that it was a "foot thing" and the x-rays came back negative.

Blows. Without being touched and to have it go out like that....not good. That being said, the fact that he was in there this late in the game doesn't matter. That injury was going to happen.

Big Ten Network can suck my balls. B10 Reporter: "I saw Beanie's parents and they looked confident." How about you ask them what's going on whore!

Jason - Posey is getting a pretty good start at that 400 yards prediction you made.

Yeah, he looked good. Outside of the Beanie injury, there were a ton of things to like.

After hearing Tressel on the field after the game, I'm encouraged.

The Senator said that he was happy it wasn't too serious (or words to that effect), without saying anything - of course - about the exact nature of the injury.

>>What did Tressel say after the game?<<

He confirmed it was a foot injury, but not ankle. That's still serious, but a bit more encouraging news.

The guy played with bone spurs in his ankle all of last year. You have to think that if he can walk, he's going to play and still be the best player on the field.

Who knows of course whether he can go against USC, but Jebus it was good to see him walk back out - I was sure when he went down that the next thing we heard was that he was being taken to University to have his foot bones/Achilles reassembled.

In the post-game presser, JT said that the x-rays were negative, but he couldn't commit to whether he'd see USC.

Just from his voice tone and body language, I'm a lot more at ease.

Which is why it's silly for anybody to play armchair doctor - thanks for making my point, J. :)

I guess I'd recommend NO EFFING PRACTICE OR GAME CONTACT until 2 weeks from now, and if he can go against USC, let him go. Even if he's still a little gimpy.

I love Saturdays. ECU taking it to V. Tech and BGSU beating Pitt pretty handily. I can't wait to see what happens with the rest of the B10 tonight - especially Illinois and MSU.

Off to that 6-0 start certainly helps, but the big games are going now or later tonight.

RichRod era in Michigan begins with a three-and-out and then the his first lucky break.

Yeah - is I was a M fan, I'd be nauseous still, though. That Sheridan pass (and scramble/sack) was horrendous and so far McGuffie looks like he's awesome at getting smoked.

And their safeties are still horrible. Boy, that Morgan Trent sure is fast, though! He can run guys down after 50-60 yards with the best of them.

Not looking good for the maize and abused, with the 4th quarter starting and the blue rodents are down 25-10... Game stats from ESECPN: 29 rush yds, 6 1st downs, 3 turnovers, 2/10 on 3rd downs.

On OSU's game, I think they looked really good. I mean, it was the mighty Penguins of YSU, but the defense looked like they were on a mission. Posey looks good, and mad props to Dane for holding onto the ball when he took that hit.

Hope Beanie will be ok. I'm already having nightmares that he'll be out a while. Having him could be the difference between a win and a loss @ USC. But let's not get ahead of ourselves... Get better, big guy!

Pryor looks like the real deal, and it was nice to see him passing: 4/6 for 35 yds. I am firmly of the opinion that he should come to OSU and learn to become the best passer he can be, as that will benefit his overall career (college & NFL) the most. Developmentally, he'll be much better off with us and our blended offensive scheme than he ever would have been in strictly a read-option spread offense.
