Tressel celebrates 100th win at OSU

COLUMBUS (AP) — Even though he says he never looks back, Ohio State coach Jim Tressel couldn’t help but reflect on his 100th victory with the Buckeyes.

“It’s exciting every time you win,” he said after Terrelle Pryor’s three touchdown passes and 334 yards led the second-ranked Buckeyes to a 38-10 victory over Indiana on Saturday. “We’ve had a lot of awfully good players here and our coaching staff has been outstanding. A lot of those 100 wins have been here at home and we’ve got great fans.

“This is a place that, if they let you stay long enough, you should win 100.”

Tressel improved to 235-78-2 in 25 years (the first 15 at Football Championship Subdivision Youngstown State). He won his 100th at Ohio State in his 121st game, the third-fastest among Big Ten coaches.
