The Columbus Dispatch Saturday afternoon in Michigan Stadium, Ohio State will wear "throwback" uniforms that honor the school's 1954 national championship team. Ohio State's 21-7 triumph that season in The Game ranks as one of the Buckeyes' all-time top victories. The Big Ten title and berth in the Rose Bowl were on the line when top-ranked Ohio State entertained 12th-ranked Michigan on Nov. 20. Woody Hayes was in his fourth season as head coach of the Buckeyes. Ohio State entered the game 6-0 in league play (8-0 overall), and Michigan was 5-1 (6-2). Coach Bennie Oosterbaan's Wolverines had lost to Indiana (13-9) in conference action and could create a tie for the Big Ten crown with a victory. The game was nationally televised, with former Michigan great Tom Harmon and veteran sportscaster Bill Stern handling the announcing. Press credentials were issued to more than 500 media representatives -- at the time the largest ever to cover a Big Ten game.
USA Today COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - What's brewing today with the 2009 Ohio State Buckeyes. BUCKEYES BUZZ: The plays weren't all that effective, but Ohio State showed some innovation in its offense in the dramatic 27-24 overtime victory over Iowa by running the ball several times on direct snaps to running back Dan "Boom" Herron. The "wildcat" formation is all the rage in the NFL thanks to the Miami Dolphins, who have embraced the no-quarterback, direct snap set.
Coach Jim Tressel said Monday that his staff proposed the wildcat several weeks ago.
Coshocton Tribune Aaron Conrad knows what he looks like in silver. The big question heading into Saturday is how the Lancaster attorney looks in white Conrad, an ardent Ohio State football fan, paints his shaved head to resemble a Buckeye helmet for every game. So what does Conrad think of Ohio State rolling out throwback uniforms for Saturday's game at Michigan?
Cleveland Plain Dealer Quarterback Terrelle Pryor's injured left ankle forced Ohio State to add a wrinkle to the running attack the previous two weeks with their version of the wildcat, sending Pryor in motion and directly snapping the ball to a running back. With Pryor and running backs Dan Herron, Brandon Saine and Jordan Hall expected to be near full-strength against Michigan on Saturday, maybe things will get a little more wild against the Wolverines. "We look at it as if we've got four different runners, and at the moment we worked it, the running backs were healthier than Terrelle," Ohio State coach Jim Tressel said. "The good news is I'd like to think we'll go into Saturday and all four will be healthy."
Mansfield News Journal If Earle Bruce has high expectations for Ohio State sophomore Terrelle Pryor, it's because the old ball coach has been down this road himself with a ballyhooed quarterback. In 1979, Bruce's first season as OSU head coach, sophomore Art Schlichter guided the Buckeyes to an 18-15 win at Michigan and within a victory of a national championship after pitching 21 interceptions his freshman season.
Canton Repository On his way off the field, the only player without a name on his jersey was the hero. Fitting, given that some of his Buckeye teammates estimate 50 players in the locker room didn't know who Devin Barclay even was. An overtime win against Iowa and a trip to the Rose Bowl both rested on the inexperienced and unknown right leg of Barclay, a walk-on kicker. Head Coach Jim Tressel said he had confidence that Barclay could make the 39-yard field goal, but Tressel was making plans for a second overtime, not a celebration.

But as OSU and Iowa went into overtime to decide the Big Ten Championship, a 39-yard field goal by the 26-year-old junior ended the Hawkeyes' hopes and sealed a Rose Bowl bid for the Buckeyes.
