Am I missing something? First they have an ACC's team profile. Then the last line of the write up states OSU only has pride to play for knowing we are not eligible for the league title? Glad to know that we have been sanctioned already Yahoo!

Before the fall of the Tressel empire, Ohio State was the favorite to win an unprecedented seventh Big Ten crown in a row. Now, the lone thing to play for is pride, which is huge in Columbus. Ohio State must figure out how to patch some holes - most notably at quarterback and wide receiver - while staying focused amid NCAA trouble. The Buckeyes have enough talent to fill the spots created by the suspensions, as well as shoring up the front seven on defense, but will the team get steady quarterback play? Is interim coach Luke Fickell ready to be the leader of a major program? Lastly, will the team stay motivated and focused knowing it isn't eligible for the league title?

hmmm

OSU will win the title, and perhaps the National title.

Last season: 11-3, 8-0 (1st in ACC Coastal; beat Florida State in ACC championship game, lost to Stanford in Orange Bowl)

Hmm that sounds like what VTech did last year...

Stay tuned.

Somebody nationally should have a funeral for sports journalism. It's been dead a while now.

I think sports journalists are very credible, after all, they broke the story on all of Storm Kleins tats....No, wait.

About a hundred articles referring to the huge SI story that was discussed a couple of months ago just before Tressel resigned.

If i wasnt about to walk out of the door, I would link a definition of or. As in...
SportsIllustrated.com reported Monday night that nine other Ohio State players, including Licking Valley’s Storm Klein, were seen swapping memorabilia or giving autographs for tattoos or money.

Yeah, if he didn't get tats then he got money. Fact.

Haha, yes, I was agreeing with you. Nowhere did it specify whether he got tats or money, everyone just assumed since he has no tats that was he in the clear.
