After enduring a season of criticism and second-guessing, Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor answered all his critics Saturday.
Pryor's MVP performance led Ohio State to a 26-17 win over Oregon, throwing for 266 yards on 23 of 37 passing with two touchdowns and one interception along with leading the team with 72 rushing yards. Pryor's command of the offense helped the Buckeyes to a whopping 41:37-18:23 advantage in time of possession.
The Buckeyes held the high-powered Oregon offense to just 260 total yards and limited quarterback Jeremiah Masoli to 81 yards on 9-of-20 passing. The Ohio State offense put up 419 total yards and got 101 yards receiving and a touchdown on eight catches by DeVier Posey.
With the win, Ohio State evened its all-time mark at the Rose Bowl at 7-7. The Buckeyes have also won their last two Rose Bowl appearances.
