MADISON, WIS.: Terrelle Pryor ran for an 11-yard touchdown with 1:08 left, and Chris Wells had 168 yards rushing and a score as Ohio State's new double-threat backfield led the 14th-ranked Buckeyes to a 20-17 victory over No. 18 Wisconsin on Saturday.
The last time the Buckeyes (4-1, 2-0 Big Ten) played a marquee game under the lights, they got pounded by Southern California last month. Wells didn't play in that game, and Pryor, the talented freshman, wasn't the starter.
With Wells healthy and Pryor getting comfortable, Ohio State looks like a much different team.
The 19-year-old quarterback kept his poise, leading Ohio State on two fourth-quarter scoring drives, snapping Wisconsin's 16-game home winning streak that evened coach Jim Tressel's record to 3-3 against the Badgers (3-2, 0-2).

I think Jim Heacock has many deficiencies in his coaching of the defense. First of all, he has no idea of how to defend the spread offense as witnessed by the two BCS defeats. He doesn't recognize the other teams tendencies very well except if they play a traditional offense. For the last three years, he has had the best defensive team in the country but still has choked in the big games. He would go conservative ala John Cooper. Donatelli was a better coordinator with more imagination and disguised defenses better.
On another note, Coach Tressel needs to play some other receivers more because I think he realizes that these current starters are not in the class of Ginn and Garcia.
