2010-2011: 12-1 (7-1, Big Ten)
When you have an off-season like the Ohio State Buckeyes had, you cannot wait for the regular season to arrive and leave behind the drama with a little football, and now would be a good time to tell the casual football fan what the knowledgeable football fan already knows: Ohio State is far from dead this season. The team returns a loaded offense line and as always enters the season with what looks to be and what will end up as a Top 10 defense. Forget the loss of Pryor and the end of Tressel-ball, because Ohio State is loaded with talent that teams across the nation still envy. Whether it be the weathered, but less talented Joe Bauserman or the green and adroit Braxton Miller leading the Buckeyes into the Horseshoe this fall is a non-issue. OSU can easily go 4-1 without the three seniors they're missing due to tattoos (and possibly even 5-0), and then the Bucks will be the same team as expected, sans the overrated Pryor.
2011-2012 Outlook:
Key Game: October 8th @Nebraska...the Cornhuskers want to challenge against the best, and this will be the first game of the year where the Buckeyes will be at theirs.
Predicted record: 9-3 (5-3) {losses against Michigan State, Nebraska, and Wisconsin}
