So says Big 10 blog Rivalry, Esq in previewing the primetime showdown between USC and Ohio State in Columbus:
Will the Entire Big 10 Root for Ohio State?
↵↵While Jim Tressel is right to point out -- as he did during Tuesday’s chat with the media -- that no single game can shoulder the weight of past outcomes, the mainstream college football establishment has a short term memory... That’s why it won’t just be the Buckeye faithful pulling for the scarlet Saturday night, it will be the entire Big Ten.
↵↵While Ohio State fans may appreciate the solidarity, the real stakes are their own football loving souls, which may not be able to handle another disappointing performance. As Rivalry, Esq points out, the Trojans have won six straight versus the Buckeyes, including last year’s blowout win at the Coliseum in L.A. With home field advantage and a talent as dynamic as Terrell Pryor starting opposite a true freshman who threw 18 interceptions as a senior in high school, if ever there was a time for Jim Tressel to step out of his comfort zone to maximize his advantages, surely this is it.
↵The eyes of the Big 10 are upon you, Buckeyes.
