Certainly a 62-yard pass helps with that. I'm not saying TP should be benched. All I'm saying is that when he throws the ball he often looks more like Stanley Jackson than Troy Smith.Gone with the Schwindhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17168265765161313858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7058428312673204233.post-77074435935292816262010-09-11T20:15:55.868-07:002010-09-11T20:15:55.868-07:00Enjoyed article.

Harris had 4 INT with 3 the fault of the receiver per Miami coach. 1-2 INT's are too many but stats of 22-39 for 232 yards are not good but not terrible against a very good defense.<br /> Agree that TP had many terrible passes - sure didn't have any accuracy or touch on short passes today (which is often a problem for TP). But he did average 8.6 yards per pass attempt despite completing only 12 of 27. For comparison TP avg 7.1 yards per attempt last year and opponents averaged 5.3 yards per attempt. 8.6 looks great in comparison. <br /> And Pryor total yardage of 346 (233 passing and career high 113 on the ground) was also impressive. TP exceeded that once last year (vs Toledo) and only had 338 vs Oregon as MVP! No opponents QB had 346 yards total offense last year. And the bottom line is TP did more than enough to win and is now 21-3 as a starter. <br /> And what about that last drive that took 7:30 off the clock while never passing and running the play expected almost every play!! TP just kept picking up first downs on 3rd down. Not sure any other QB in history could have done that!! And the two big plays of the game was TP two play drive to tie game at 10-10 on two perfect passes. I am sure Tressel wouldn't trade Pryor for any other QB in college FB. And most coaches will take Harris. Both QB stats at end of year will be near the top in the nation.<br /> Also I was amazed at the kick off yardage. As bad as kickoff coverage was, both teams returned 4 kickoffs and OSU avg 38 yards a return and Miami only 31 yards. Berry avg 43 yards on two returns. Another positive for special teams.<br /> But OSU gave up a kickoff and punt for TD's in the same game for the first time in OSU history! Not good!<br /> With 4 supposedly weak opponents coming up, OSU could be one of highest scoring teams in nation going into Wisconsin game (even with TP!).neslaglehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11839148623371380082noreply@blogger.com
