Pryor: Weep this, Nitts

Terrelle Pryor has been looking for his signature win at Ohio State for nearly two years.  Today, he got it.

All it took, seemingly, was a little home cooking to get it.  And perhaps a little motivation from some "Terrell Cryer" t-shirts.

Behind the Pennsylvania native's three touchdowns, Ohio State downed Penn State in Happy Valley by the score of 24-7 in a huge Big Ten conference showdown.

Pryor passed for two touchdowns, and rushed for another, but it was the defense that was the driving force behind the suffocating win for the Buckeyes.

OSU held PSU to just 201 yards of total offense -- 125 passing, 76 rushing.  The Buckeye defense also forced the Nittany Lions' first turnover in three games, and forced eight three-and-outs and one four-and-out in PSU's 13 possessions.

With Iowa's upset loss to Northwestern earlier today, the Buckeyes now find themselves tied for the Big Ten lead with the Hawkeyes.  OSU and Iowa meet next week in a game that will very likely decide who will be the conference's representative in the Rose Bowl.

    What a fantastic day for Terrell as he dismantled PSU in the shadow of Mount "Shit"ney as 110 thousand left the Crappy Valley very unhappy.

    Looming large for the "Shitney" Lions is a season ending date with Sparty in East Lansing. Looks like the PSU faithful will be travelling to Tampa for the Outback Bowl.
