A starting cornerback is now out. A true freshman will start at QB for the first time ever. They lost a load of NFL talent. If the Buckeyes don't beat USC in the Shoe on September 12th, there are no excuses. The Buckeyes just stink. If there was any Pete Carroll team that the Buckeyes could beat, it would be a team led by a true freshman QB - and that is what they will (likely, barring injury or a total flop vs. San Jose State) see in two weeks time.
I think Pete Carroll wants to play the freshman just so he can show that he can win the big games with anybody. True freshmen. It doesn't matter. Pete Carroll wants to show that any players he puts out on the field can beat San Jose State, Ohio State, or anybody. His program is just that good.
Jim Tressel has been talking up his team big time. Pryor is going to be better. The O-line is nastier. The defense will still be tough. The wideouts are talented. The Buckeyes will have to prove it on the field. Talk is cheap. Can they beat the big boys from Troy on September 12th? We'll see.
