Ohio State.... Back To Back To Back National Championship Apearances?

The Ohio State Buckeyes have done great the last two seasons. But have let all of us buckeye fans down once they got to the Championship Game. After a loss to Florida and LSU, how will they come back?... I'll tell you. Chris "Beanie" Wells. The man is a machine.

It seems as if Wells is the Eddie George of this era. Power, Agility, and Speed. Mowing down defenders at will and burning corners and safeties. We all know that Ohio State signed Terrell Pryor but lets not forget that Pryor is not going to be rushing for 1,800 yards this season. The Ohio State offense is based around smashmouth lineman, and fast, physical runningbacks. Not skinny, fast quarterbacks.

Im not saying that Terrell Pryor is not a good player. But I think that the Ohio State coaching staff have there work cut out for them when it comes to training Pryor to adapt and run the Ohio State offense. But there is one little weapon that Ohio State has that i forgot to mention. Brandon Saine.

Brandon Saine has good size and the speed of a cheetah. At like, 6'1 and 205 lbs. He has good size. But with a 40 yard dash time floating aroun 4.2 seconds, he can burn you. Now imagine this. 205 lbs, hitting you in the face at 4.2 speeds. Ouch! That one will leave a mark.

I feel Ohio State will use Brandon Saine the same way the Saints use Reggie Bush. Send him on the field more as a distraction. He will automatically get the safeties attention and a corner's attention. He's too fast to leave in man coverage. That opens up the middle for Beanie Wells to run. Or it leaves a big passing lane open for Todd Boeckmen to hit really any reciever he wants. Or if Terrell Pryor somehow beats out Boeckman for the starting QB job, he'll have a passing lane. Or even a decent gap to run through.

I truly feel that Ohio State will return to the National Championship game this year. And lets all pray we buckeye fans dont get let down again. Tell me what yout think.
