Could be big year for OSU, Tressel

I wonder how the college football season will play out.
It's probably not going to come as much of a surprise, but I'm hoping for an Ohio State appearance and win in the BCS National Championship Game.
The table is set for Coach Jim Tressel and the Buckeyes, who are No. 2 in the pre-season coaches poll. As much as I hate pre-season polls, that's exactly where I thought OSU would and should be. Win out and they will make their 4th appearance in the BCS title game.
That will set-up the oft-criticized Buckeyes and Tressel to silence the critics who don't think too highly of the Big 10/11/12 and who don't Ohio State think can win the big game against a quality opponent.
While I don't want to put the proverbial cart before the horse (man, I hate cliches), a national championship would be the salve Buckeye Nation needs for several reasons.
