Terrelle Pryor is expected to start at quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes Saturday at home against Indiana, but he might not be at full strength.
Pryor is dealing with a quad injury he suffered against Illinois, and Doug Lesmerises writes for the Cleveland Plain Dealer that the injury could be a concern going forward, even if Pryor is able to play. That's because Pryor said after the game that he could not run on the injury, and Lesmerises adds that if Pryor can't be his usual threat in the running game, that could cause teams to key on the Bucks' passing attack.
The Hoosiers aren't looking like the toughest of teams this year, so OSU should be OK this week even with a limited attack under Pryor. But a road trip to Wisconsin looms Oct. 16, and the Bucks end the season with a murderer's row of Penn State, Iowa and Michigan, so coach Jim Tressel will need his Heisman Trophy candidate at 100 percent sooner rather than later.                                                                    - Jeff Dooley

Angelique S. Chengelis of the Detroit News updated the Denard Robinson injury on Monday, writing that while Michigan's Heisman Trophy candidate was held out of practice to rest, he is at no risk of missing Saturday's showdown with Michigan State. "Everything is fine," coach Rich Rodriguez said.
Robinson tweaked his bruised knee against Indiana, but was able to stay in the game and score the winning touchdown. It's hard seeing how this knee injury will completely go away this season, seeing as how Robinson is running the ball an average of nearly 20 times per game and he'll only take more of a beating against physical Big Ten defenses like Iowa and Penn State in the coming weeks.
As ESPN's Bruce Feldman writes, the Spartans' D should provide quite a test for Robinson as well.
