I have no doubts that he will play.....I just think it's so uncharacteristic of JT to reveal injury status. That and I just don't see this kid staying out of such a big game unless he is unable to run at all

I tend to agree with you. I 'm certainly no doctor, coach or whatever but I would think that unless it's an injury that could lead to further complications if he plays and reaggravates it, he'll play. Just another opinion on the subject.

I mean the guy played with screwed up ankles and a broken wrist last year...like I said, unless this injury prevents him from even running, he'll be on the field

:oh:

I still marvel about how much info Coach T has provided on Beanies injury. He is always so tight lipped, but in this case he is giving daily updates. It just doesn't make sense.....

Because the media is his fiddle in this case. :wink2:

Regardless of what you say, when Beanie steps on that field tomorrow night (which he will), OSU will have their swagger back........and his teammates will then say......"ok, it's on now". He is a big game player, his star will shine bright tomorrow in the LA coliseum. Tressel is using this as a motivator.

Wow, this has potential to be one of the best Buckeye stories of all time!!! If I believed in jinxes, I wouldn't point it out, but just imagine the stories we will tell 20+ years from now....

Beanie Wells fought off a horrible toe injury to come in a score the winning touchdown over the top ranked Trojans!!! This win catapulted Ohio State to their second national championship of the decade and practically sealed up the Heisman in the third week of the season!

My grandkids are going to hear about 9/13/08 so often that they will dread coming to visit!

No worries.:oh:

Herd?

So... the head games continue.

Apparently Cowherd said on his show earlier, attributed to an "OSU inside source" something to the effect that:

"Tressel is saying that Beanie is hurt so they can have a built in excuse, so when they win the rest of their games they can make their claim to get in the title game because their only loss will have been on the raod without their best player."

I'm sure Colin does have a source that is telling him that... That doesn't make that source correct. The truth is no one knows what Beanie's status is except for Beanie, Tress, and a few select individuals. Further more, even that could change drastically before kick off.

Whatever the case, Tress has to be game planning for the possibility Beanie will be out. I think even without Beanie, we have the personnel to make enough plays on offense and special teams that a victory is very possible if we play solid D and get stops on third down.
