Coming off one of the poorest performances in years, the Buckeyes proved that they can make plays on offense and the defense can still dominate games.Im glad that Terrelle Pryor didnt let all the negative press get him in a mental hole that he wouldnt be able to run and pass his way out of.

When he ran, he ran with conviction, and when he threw the ball, it was with better vision and mechanics.He still has a ways to go, but this was a very important week for him and the team Showing progress after last week was huge. 509 yards of offense was pretty evenly split between running and passing230 yards in the air and 279 on the ground. I was happy to see Jim Tressel stick with the running game even after Brandon Saine left the game with what is being reported as a concussion.Jordan Hall is proving to be a capable back, and Jermil Martin looked great when he got his chances in the second half. With Dan Herron and Saine injured (for how long I dont know), having capable backs to rely on will be huge to take some of the pressure off Pryor.In addition, I was thrilled to see Pryor throw the ball downfield on several plays. I think showing off the vertical passing game will give Penn State, Iowa, and Michigan something to think about as the prep for the upcoming games.2 Welcome back to the Silver Bullets on defense.
