Wolverines Roll Rival #15 Buckeyes
Michigan's dynamic duo of Manny Harris and DeShawn Sims were key in bringing down hated rival Buckeyes. The do led Michigan to a 73-64 victory over No. 15 Ohio State and improved their Big Ten record to 1-1, after previously losing to Indiana. Sims had 28 points and nine rebounds, while Harris added 24 points to go with seven rebounds and five assists."There was some sense of urgency," Michigan coach John Beilein said. "For one, it's Ohio State, but at the same time, you have to take care of home."
"You have to be really mobile to contain guys in our system," Sims said. "I was a recipient of good passes from a lot of players today. You take what the game brings you."
The Buckeyes were without their standout, Evan Turner. In Evan's absence, Jon Diebler kept Ohio State in the game to the bitter end. Diebler fiished with 14 points, including three 3-pointers, in the first half.
The Wolverines sorely needed this win to keep their spirits up. To this point they had not beaten any teams I would consider "good". Previously wins this season came against: Houston Baptist, Arkansas - Pine Bluff, Creighton, University of Detroit and Coppin State. Hopefully this is the win they needed to get the ball rolling in Big Ten conference play.

Terrelle Pryor six weeks later....
I am leaning towards it being the people around him who actually dragged out his decision. I really hope he is able to manage the "new friends / hangers on" he's been accumlating and is able to make sound career decisions for the future.
This kid is 17 years old, has seemingly unlimited potential and has drawn comparisons to Vince Young already. However does anyone remember the name Xavier Lee? Xavier was once "the next big thing" QB recruit that landed in Florida State in 2005 to single handedly resurrect the struggling Seminole program. After all the hype, Lee played in four games last year as a junior and is a long shot to make the NFL. So lets sit back and wait before we hand over the Heisman to Terrelle Pryor.
