Yeah, from the beginning.

Actually, the announcers mentioned that he didn't look great warming up. But he sure warmed up nicely.

I'm curious to hear what Pryor was like today on the sidelines. I'd love to hear from some of the game goers (one you get home of course) about whether he appeared to engage his teammates more than usual today.

Took a step fwd today for sure vs a very bad 'Sota defense. At this point I am thinking most fans would be happy with any progress though.

Not sure the nay sayers have any crow to eat though :).

I don't feel the need to qualify his improved performance today by pointing out it was against a bad defense.

This isn't the first bad defense the Buckeyes have played this year, and while he was able to put up some stats and win in some of the other games, it was often in spite of poor fundamentals. He looked a lot better in his mechanics and decision-making today, and I think it was his best game of the year. I'd feel the same way about it if it unded up 17-7 instead of 38-7.

I think for the first time this year people who are optimistic about Pryor's development have something to point to that he's done on the field, rather than pointing to something Troy Smith or Vince Young did.

I was at the game today and had C deck seats right on the 50, so I could see pretty much everything on the field. My take: Pryor looked really good running the ball (looked to turn up a lot more this week than the past few) and was making, for the most part, good reads. He's still a little late with the ball, though (the second TD pass to Posey was about 5 seconds late, but Posey was open forever...). He looks like he's improving, but there are things that can still improve. All in all, though, I'm happy with his performance today (and I'd guess he is, too).

Pointing it out because people hate the comments that point out his flaws but it is a little silly to all of the sudden say he silenced the critics... who is asking for Joe now comments.

Pryor has looked good vs Toledo and Indiana and 'Sota so I think pointing it out has merit.

Agreed, that is the single best thing I saw today from his as well!
