AZ Rally
Ohio State quarterback Troy Smith talks to the
crowd during a rally yesterday in Arizona.
Seniors want to get ring the old-fashioned way: Earn it
January 8, 2007 Source: Columbus Dispatch - "The last time Ohio State’s fifth-year seniors played for a national title, they weren’t themselves. They were scout-teamers mimicking a University of Miami player: Quarterback Troy Smith was Ken Dorsey or running back Willis McGahee. Defensive tackle Quinn Pitcock was Vince Wilfork. Defensive end Jay Richardson was Jerome McDougle. When game day came Jan. 3, 2003, they stood idly on the sideline as freshman redshirts and watched their teammates stun the Hurricanes. They all own championship rings, but they are a bit sheepish about it..."

Troy Smith's poise is crucial for victory
January 8, 2007 Source: Akron Beacon Journal - "...Generally, there are two ways to keep a quarterback in check: a pass rush that forces him to lose his comfort level or blanketing his receivers in the secondary. Considering that Smith uses his legs as adeptly as he throws the ball and that OSU's receiving corps runs five deep, neither of those alternatives is easy in the execution. Maybe Meyer won't find the answer, but he definitely knows what he is facing..."
