Yeah against TSUN he looked fast, maybe he was a little extra pumped up. But hasn't one of his ankles been giving him problems?

As for the Akron game......

I was screwing around on my XBOX and played on the practice mode and put the defense at the 3-3-5 defense. There are many holes in that defense. The only way it can be effective is if you have athletes, and Akron doesn't have many on defense, at least compared to ours. I think if we just pound the ball and throw some screens and dump passes we should have no problems at all.

On the OSU preview show on ONN all the commentators were predicting Akron to score 10-14 points. Is their offense that good? They've got a new QB.

coach tressel said he was going to give QB boeckman more options this saturday! Just heard on the radio earlier today. Whatever that means, we'll see saturday! :)

I know they have good athletes on offense. Former Buckeye commit Dennis Kennedy is a pretty decent RB and Akron usually puts up a decent fight for a MAC team. After the events in Ann Arbor last week, by no means will this game be taken lightly.

Did he elaborate on what more options meant?

nope, it was just a quick "blurp" on a radio staion (96.3 columbus station).

Has some pretty fast wheels as well. I think our D will be challenged much more than against YSU.

I would like to see us spread the field a little bit more with our receivers and see what Boeckman can do with the ball in his hands. Because we know somewhere down the line Todd will have to win a game for us.
