Will Howard already has a long resume of accomplishments and starts to his name as a college quarterback. He did a lot at Kansas State. But now officially the Ohio State starting quarterback for the season opener against Akron on Saturday in the Horseshoe, Howard has new feelings to process, new players to take the field with and even new allegiances. See, Howard grew up a Penn State fan. He says since coming to Ohio State, he has 'seen the bright side.' He's actually just seen how it goes at Ohio State -- the pressure that comes with it. Howard has went through the walk-throughs and game-day routine as a practice run for Saturday. But when it comes to actually doing it Saturday before playing Akron in the Horseshoe, it's going to be different -- even for a quarterback with a conference title and plenty of snaps on his resume.
