A scrimmage against Youngstown State that should've ended with celebration ended in solemnity as Chris "Beanie" Wells, Ohio State's Heisman Trophy prospect, went down with a foot injury in the 3rd quarter.
The game itself was a blow-out, with a 43-0 final score. But the tension rides over all of Ohio State as it's threatened to lose its #2 position to #3 ranked Southern California in two weeks.
Southern California, meanwhile, mowed down UVA, leaving Al Groh, the head coach of the Cavaliers to say of the Trojans, that they may be the most physically fit team he has ever seen in his professional career.
Mark Sanchez, back 100%, is completely ready and preparing for the USC game. Peter Lalich, the Cavaliers quarterback said, "Their speed was pretty unbelievable the whole game. It's something they have across the board, at every position, and they really were able to use it to their advantage."
With Pete Carroll at the helm since 2001, the program has won 11 national championships and is maybe the best program in the country. Ohio State will be a useful indicator into the success Carroll will lead this year.
