The big-game blues are gone at Ohio State. Now the Buckeyes get a chance to prove they're not just one-week wonders in high-stakes affairs. Iowa's loss to Northwestern, coupled with Ohio State's 24-7 win later Saturday at Penn State, left the Hawkeyes and Buckeyes tied for first in the Big Ten.

Terrelle Pryor tiptoed his way around the Penn State defense, then smiled and danced all over the Beaver Stadium turf. Quite the happy homecoming Saturday for the dual-threat phenom from western Pennsylvania. Pryor threw for two touchdowns and ran for another in his first game back in his home state and No.

Ohio State is 40-8 over the past four seasons, a record that might have most fans of the 15th-ranked Buckeyes flush with confidence heading into Saturday's game at No. 11 Penn State. It shouldn't. The last six times the Buckeyes have played a team as good or better based on rankings, they've lost.

Lost in the hoopla over Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor's trip home to Pennsylvania this weekend is the story of how Penn State found its own signal-caller in the Buckeyes' backyard. Cool in the pocket and confident in the locker room, Youngstown, Ohio-native Daryll Clark has turned into a star with the No.

Terrelle Pryor has been known to slam his helmet, point fingers and yell at teammates on the sideline following mistakes.

The Buckeyes can't afford outbursts like that this week.

Pryor's every move will again be scrutinized this week when Ohio State returns to his home state for the first time to face Penn State. Pryor, from Jeannette, Pa., chose Ohio State out of high school over the Nittany Lions, even though his father wanted him to play for Joe Paterno.

Now Pryor gets to face an angry mass of 110,000 that a few years ago chewed up and spit out Troy Smith, who eventually won a Heisman at Ohio State.

"They're going to tear me up," Pryor said. "I'm sure they're going to be giving me a lot of stuff, maybe throwing stuff, saying a lot of things, but I won't...

Ohio State kicker Aaron Pettrey was helped off the field with an apparent right knee injury late in the second quarter on Saturday against New Mexico State. Pettrey came into the game, won 45-0 by the 17th-ranked Buckeyes, as the Big Ten's third-leading scorer. Coach Jim Tressel would not disclose the nature or the severity of the injury, other than to say Pettrey "got banged up pretty...

New Mexico State didn't offer much of what No. 17 Ohio State will see the next three weeks. It just filled up an open date on the schedule. Dane Sanzenbacher caught two touchdown passes and Terrelle Pryor threw for a score and ran for another in the Buckeyes' 45-0 victory on Saturday. "I think we're ready for the last three games," Sanzenbacher said.

Two years ago, Thaddeus Gibson was close to leaving the Ohio State football team because he felt he was a forgotten man. Now he's one of the best defensive linemen in the Big Ten and part of a front wall that is the strength of the No. 17 Buckeyes. "I just appreciate those guys sticking with me," he said of the coaching staff and his teammates.

Jim Tressel doesn't want to hear how Ohio State is favored by 40 points over New Mexico State on Saturday in a non-conference game dropped into the heart of the Big Ten race. "We haven't got 40 points very often, so ..." the Buckeyes coach cracked. In other words, Ohio State hasn't been so overpowering all season -- especially on offense -- that it can spend much time thinking...
