They could go 11-1 or 10-2 depending on how good Wisconsin is.

As a lifelong Bucks fan, I'm not happy about the YSU game, although I understand it. The Buckeyes have NEVER played a division 1-AA school in modern times, and it's going to be a slaughter. However, I understand that Tressel is throwing a bone to his old team, and the Penguins will benefit greatly from the payday.

That Akron game will be a tougher game then people think. The Zips beat NCST on the road last year, so they know how to upset teams on the road. I also think that Minnesota game is a classic hangover affair. I expect the Gophers to keep it closer than they should.

After that, there won't be a challenge until PSU, and that 4 game run will determine the Bucks season. I expect the Buckeyes to have a huge chip on their shoulder this year after being humiliated in the championship game.

Stupid question, who's the QB for the buckeyes now?

That's not a stupid question at all. Todd Boeckman was the early favorite, and he looks like the prototypical QB on paper: 6'5" 235, smart, rocket arm and "held the clipboard" for a couple years. But Rob Shoenhoft also does a lot of the same things, and he's even bigger (6'6" 240) and more "NFL QB-like". But the guy who most impressed in the Spring game was Antonio Henton, listed at 6'2" and 210, but for all intents and purposes is the second coming of Troy Smith. Hell, it was hard to tell that Hinton WASN'T Smith.

Whoever wins the battle will be a quality QB, and by the time OSU plays PSU, that will be the least of the Lions worries.

I think the Bucks could do pretty well this year. They've got a bruising o-line, a young talented RB and a good defense. I don't see them going to a BCS Bowl but the should finish 10-2 or 9-3.

I think the Bucks will have a shot at a BCS Bowl.We can easily lose only one game this year.

8-4 or 9-3 at best. The offense for Ohio State is going to be rebuilding this year, BUT, if they have as quick of an improvement as the Defense did last year, who knows. Right now though, they have to be REALLY lucky to go to a BCS Bowl. I just think that Offense has too many critics to silence.

The only position on O that I see a question mark at is Qb. We have a mamoth line with tons of expirience, a pretty good corp of WR in Hartline, Robo and Small(they're no Ginn/Gonzo combination but their not bad either) and I see Chris and Maurice Wells being a good combination of speed, power, and durability at the running back position. But I do agree with you that it will be very unlikely for the Buckeyes to reach a BCS Bowl game and I also see them going 9-3.
