Jim Tressel Shares Ban

Head Football Coach Jim Tressel of the University of Ohio State will share the 5 game suspension with 6 players including star quarterback Terrelle Pryor, running back Dan Herron, and wide receiver DaVier Posey

The players were suspended because they received benefits from a tattoo parlor and selling autographed Ohio State memorabilia from games. So why did Tressel get suspended? Just for simply knowing about it.

The question for Ohio State football squad is how will they win the first 5 games, and will those 6 players be ready to come back for one of there hardest games of the season in Lincoln, Nebraska against the Huskers.

Well first off there first 5 games aren't all that difficult.

9/3/11 Akron

9/10/11 Toledo

9/17/10 @Miami (FLA)

9/24/11 Colorado

10/1/11 Michigan State

The only games that I can see the Buckeyes struggle with is at Miami Hurricanes, and Michigan State. Although Colorado could come with a surprise, but the Buckeye defense is just too good. 

So how will they play against Nebraska? Well that's up to them. 

When October 8th comes around there will be mixed emotions. They either come out excited to play and use the adrenaline of playing again to lead them to victory or come out rusty of not playing a game since playing Arkansas in last years Sugar Bowl. Terrelle Pryor(first picture after the first paragraph) is one of the main reasons they have so much success. As a dual threat athlete at quarterback, he brings a different approach to the Buckeyes offense. Same with Dan Herron at running back with his power and speed (above on the left). The question should be what shape will the Buckeye offense be in before October 8th and how will these 3 guys pictured come out and play against a Nebraska Blackshirt defense? As a brand new Big 10 has emerged, a lot of excitement has already been buzzing about this game. We'll just have to wait till 10/08/11.
