The Ohio State University football team has completely dominated the 4th quarter. Pryor has made play after play after play with his feet, broken tackles, and stiff armed some of Oregons best tacklers to the ground causing Mossbrucker to say "and Pryor slams the hard hitting Lewis to the Rose Bowl Turf". After a leaping catch by tight end Daniel Herron for a first down, everyone in the stadium could see that the Buckeyes were rolling. A few plays later Pryor connected on a beautiful pass to DeVier Posey for a touchdown (who said they should give him the ball more? And whoever wanted Pryor to become a wide receiver after the Purdue game needs to rewatch this perfect touch pass). The score now is 26-17, and the Ducks just missed a 45 yard field goal with five minutes remaining. Hello Tressel ball!
OSU had the ball for the rest of the game, thanks to some big third down runs by Pryor once again. The final score was 26-17, and the Buckeyes are going to be pretty dangerous next season. OSU had the ball for over 41 minutes during this game, a stat that shows how much they dominated from the get go. Pryor and Tressel grew up right in front of our eyes hand in hand. Tressel finally seemed to let Pryor do what he does and his quarterback relished in this situation by taking over the game. He proved he is a complete quarterback, and his junior year should be exciting to watch. This is the 7th Rose Bowl win in Buckeye history. Pryor had 328 total yards and one touchdown, a hell of a way to bring in the New Year for the young quarterback that had the weight of the world on his shoulders from Buckeye Nation.
