Terrelle Pryor tiptoed his way around the Penn State defense, then smiled and danced all over the Beaver Stadium turf.

The 82-year-old Paterno was in rare form at the Jordan Center for the rally that followed a men’s basketball exhibition game.

Ohio State dominated Penn State through the second half and beat the 11th ranked Nittany Lions 24-7 before a deflated 110,000 fans in Happy Valley.

QB Terrelle Pryor says he has learned there’s such a thing as getting too amped for games.

The 15th-ranked Buckeyes visit No. 11 Penn State, and coach JoPa, on Saturday. The legend of Joe Paterno is hard to quantify. Heck, his age is hard to quantify.

Left tackle and right tackle are still a bit unsettled for OSU.

On the eve of the next Ohio State-Penn State match-up this Saturday at University Park, Pa. (3:30 p.m., ABC), we have an in-depth look at the history of this rivalry between two of college football’s great programs.

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.

Some history will be made Saturday at 3:30 p.m. when the Buckeyes play Penn State’s Nittany Lions at Beaver Stadium in Happy Valley.

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.

Two teams, both looking for a signature win, and neither can afford a loss.

JoePa vs. Jim Tressel. Daryll Clark vs. Terrelle Pryor. The best defense in the Big Ten against the league’s second-best unit.

Two numbers are scaring a lot of Ohio State fans. The two teams who have beaten the Buckeyes this season have a combined record of 9-8.

Tressel talks about Saturday’s match-up against the Nittany Lions and reviews last Saturday’s 45-0 win during his weekly news luncheon.

Ohio State kicker Aaron Pettrey is out for the rest of the regular season with a torn MCL.
