100 Teams in 100 Days: In 2010, Jim Tressel Gets the SEC Monkey Off His Back in his Final Season

Ohio State's 2010 season never happened, at least according to the NCAA.

6 days and counting.

Before the fallout of "Tattoo-gate," expectations for the 2010 season were for the Buckeyes to compete for the national title. Nine starters returned on offense and seven returned on defense.

Terrelle Pryor entered his third year as the starting quarterback after setting an Ohio State record with 338 total yards in his team's Rose Bowl victory against Oregon. He had DeVier Posey and Dane Sanzenbacher to throw to and Daniel "Boom" Herron and Brandon Saine in the backfield.
