Fiesta Bowl Breakdown Ohio State Buckeyes (01-04-2009)
Well here we are again and the Ohio State Buckeyes are in another BCS bowl game. Well recent history has not been good for the Buckeyes with them losing the last two BCS National Championship games. Coach Tressell has had many sleepless nights trying to figure out why they have not been able to compete with the big boys in CFB. This year they lost against the top two teams they played (USC and Penn ST). Let breakdown what the Bucks can do to change this recent history.
Most experts point to speed as the reason the Bucks have struggled against the best teams. Well this year the Bucks have one big game breaker and that is Terrell Pryor. It is a lot to ask a freshamn to step up and take over and be the difference maker but it is the only guy they have that can do it. Pryor has had a month to practice and grow in the system and think he will be ready to come into the biggest stage and shine. OSU defense has a ton of veterans so if they are going to win this the Bucks will have to get a ton of stops! Special Teams has been a big Coach Tressel assett over the years but this year this might hurt them.
Experts don’t see a ton of difference in this team and last years that ws dominated by LSU. Oddsmakers have made the Bucks a six point dog for one reason they have not beat anyone good all year. The big ten poor bowl efforts also suggest that OSU might really be in trouble here. Most believe Texas will score in the 30’s and not sure, even with a game breaker like Pryor, that OSU gets near that. Should be a very interesting game for OSU.
