Rizer was accused of shooting and killing her husband Kenneth Rizer, Sr., on April 3 of this year at their Portland home. The jury heard testimony in the case for nearly a week, including two days of an emotional account by Paula Rizer of the events that led up to the shooting. Jurors reported to Meigs County Common Pleas Court Judge Fred W. Crow III on Tuesday evening that they were unable to reach a verdict on the lesser charge of murder with no probability of agreeing. The jury forewoman told Crow the vote was deadlocked at 11-1 . which received an audible reaction from those gathered in the courtroom. ·Meigs County Prosecuting Attorney Colleen Williams told Crow she wished to retry Rizer. Crow said he would set the retrial at the earliest possible date, possibly in the first or second week of December.

Dear K.P.: You may be interested in the results of a study done recently at Ohio State Uni\erstty and published in the journal Social Cognition. Students were told there \Vould be a ne\\ graduate program in bu~incss psychology that \\mild lead to good jobs. But the) were given different amounts of discouraging news. rangmg from that their scores \\eren 't quite up to r.ar to that they weren't qualified und wouldn't be able to get a job in this field . The students who were given the most discouraging scenarios had h1gher leveb of .;elf-doubt and anxiety to begin with. but after the~ changed to more realistic career goab. their anxietv levels decreased. " In this job market, giving 'itudents false hope or unrealic expectations when you n't have any degree of con• Cience that they can succeed may seem to be the way to go initial!). tx.~ause it doe:-.n't lead to lower self-esteem or anxiety; dreams do die hard, and it may be seen as cruel to da..,h them. But the better way may be to gt\ e studenb a\ ery realistic assessment of their chances of ::-~ucce:-.s as they head down a certain path. Of course. there \\'ill always be those ...tudents who confound all the logic and succeed in spite of predictions. Those will be the ones you don't want to discourage. You must . have the faith in your experience and judgment to know ' which student to stt:l.!r away from his goal and which to give a little push.

The First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution TOI)AY IN HISTORY US. higher ed takes it on the chin Today is Wednesday, Nov. 4, the 308th day of 2009. There are 57 days left in the year. Today's Highlight in History: One year ago, on Nov. 4, 2008, Democrat Barack Obama was elected the first black president of the United States, defeating Republican John McCain; Democrats gained seats in the Senate and House. On this date: In 1884, Democrat Grover Cleveland was elected to his first term as president, defeatrng Republican James G. Blaine. In 1924, Nellie T. Ross of Wyoming was elected the nation's first female governor to serve out the remaining term of her late husband, William B. Ross. In 1939, the United States modified its neutrality stance in World War II, allowing "cash and carry" purchases of arms by belligerents, a policy favoring Britain and France. In 1942, during World War II, Axis forces retreated from El Alamein in North Africa in a major victory for Brit1sh forces commanded by Lt. Gen. Bernard Montgomery. In 1952, Dwight D. Eisenhower was elected president, defeating Democrat Adlai Stevenson. In 1979, the Iran hostage crisis began as militants • stormed the United States Embassy in Tehran, seizing • its occupants; for some, it was the start of 444 days of captivity. In 1980, Ronald Reagan won the White House as he defeated President Jimmy Carter by a strong margin. In 1991, Ronald Reagan opened his presidential library in Simi Valley, Calif., with a dedication attended by President George H.W. Bush and former Presidents Jimmy Carter, Gerald R. Ford and R1chard Nixon - the first-ever gathering of five past and present U.S. chief executives. In 1995, lsraeh Prime Mmister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated by a right-wing Israeli minutes after attending a festive peace rally. . Ten years ago: Aaron McKinney, who beat gay college student Matthew Shepard and left him to die on the · Wyoming prairie, avoided the death penalty by agreeing to serve life m prison without parole and promising never to appeal his conviction. Some 10,000 Iranian students rallied outside the former U.S. Embassy in Tehran to mark the 20th anniversary of its seizure by Islamic militants. Five years ago: Following his re-election victory, President George W. Bush pledged to aggressively pursue major changes in Social Security, the tax code and medical malpractice awards. It was announced that Elizabeth Edwards, wife of former Democratic vice-presidential candidate John Edwards, had been diagnosed with breast cancer the same day her husband and Sen. John Kerry conceded the presidential race. One year ago: California voters approved Proposition 8, a constitutional amendment outlawing same-sex marriage, overturnmg a state Supreme Court decision that gave gay couples the right to wed just months earlier. Author Michael Cnchton died m Los Angeles at age 66. BY J USTIN P OPE ASSOCIATED PRESS ' Thought for Today: "There is no such thing as a little freedom. Either you are all free, or you are not free." - Walter Cronki te, American news anchorman (born this date in 1916, died 2009). The United States spends more money than any other country. and it~ cJitc insLitut1ons arc the world's best. But overall the S) :-;tern is wasteful. fails too many and is falling behind other countries. No, the topic i•m't health care 1t·~ h1gher education. The late 1 stinging report came last wee~ from a ~tate colleges group argumg the Umted States isn't producing enough colle~e gmduates. e!ipccially in science. Sunilar gloominess emanates from busine"s groups and even the Obama administration. whose top education goals include again leading the world in proportion of college graduates. 'Rut is it really fair to try to rank American higher education against the reM of the world'? And if" vou do. is the once-vaunted U.S. system really losing its edge? A lew contrarian experts say no. The most \ ocal is Cliff Adelman. a ~harp-tongued data hound who after a long and influential career in government now works at the independent lnstatutc for Higher Education Policy. where he feels freer to rock the boat. ··we·,·e got a country full of ma ochists. people who love to be flagellated. the) want to hear a bad story."' Adelman said in an interview. "We hesitate to call it propaganda. but it is." ~ For )ears. Adelman has railed against wble<> showing other developed countries bounding ahead in college achievement. In a new paper Wedne day. he lays out his case against the most commonly cited international higher education companson<;, which typically cite annual reports from the Organization of Economk nnd Comparative Development, u consortium of the world'~ leading industrialiLed countries. It's not that Adelman and likeminded experts. including Art Hauptman, a prominent independent education consultant. think American hagher education is perfect. It's just doing a better job than you mrght behcve from the spin put on the annual OECD benchmarks. Adelman's beef falb into three main categories. GRADUATIO~ THE CONVEi':TIOi'iAL WISD0:\.1: American higher education is good at gelling students into college and terrible at getting them out with a degree.

GALUPOUS - In observance of Sudden Cardiac Awareness month Holler Cardiovascular Institute has donated seven .wtomatcd external defibrillators (AED's) to different husinesses and churches throughout Gallia and Jackson counties in an effort to create awareness and help prevent sudden cardiac death. ' An AED is a portable electronic ,device that auto1 maucally .diagnoses !he potential hfe threatcmng cardiac arrh) thmia in a patient, and is able to treat them through defibrillation. The American Heart Aso.;ociation (AHA) estimates the annual number of out of hospital Mrdden cardine death-. at 250.000 annually. ~lost victims die from an abnormal heart rhythm calkd \Cntricular tibrillation. Ventricular fibrillation causes the heart to quiver and ineffccti\'ely pump blood. If untreated the heart will stop beating and sun ivai ol'the victim is limited. The treatment for this abnormal heart rhvthm is an electrical shock provided by and automatic external dctibrillmor.

Public access to AED.., means makrng the device available in public areas where large numbers of peo- ple are gathered. Thi~ can be in a workplace. at sporting events, churches or anywhere people are that may be high risk for a heart attack. The AED is a computcrit.ed medical device that can check a person's heart rhythm. It can recognize a rhythm that requires the electrical shock. It can adv1se the rescuer when a shock is needed. The AED uses prompts.lighb and test messages to tell the rescuer steps to take. AED are very accurate to use v. ith a few hours of trainmg: anyone can learn to operate an AED ~afely. When an AED is placed in trainin!! in CPR and AED use should occur b) a recognized training facility . l\.lo:-.t states have guidelines that recommend an public access program for AED usage. this may include notification of local EMS systems where AED are located: training of staff in CPR and AED use and maintenance of the AED.

''There\ really a variety or reasons." he said, "and I'll just leave it at that.'' Browns O\vner Randy Lerner, who following Sunday's loss in Chicago said he planned to hire a "serious. credible" football authority to help run his fumbling franchise, was not available for comment. A team spokesman said there was no immediate plans for Lerner to address the media. Lerner did spend two hours meeting with two disgruntled season-ticket holders, who have been urging Cleveland fans to stay out of their seats for the Nov. 16 kickoff against Baltimore in protest of the team's futility. ''Dawg Pound Mike" Randall said Lerner was open to their ideas and gave them a few of his own. "He's trying to get the Browns on the right track.'" Randall said. "He wants it to happen now. He cares deeply." It's still not known if Kokinis was fired or forced out by the Browns, who are 1-7 and have been overmatched in most of their games. There are reports that Kokinis was asked to resign by Lerner. who pressed the fanner GM and sought to dismiss him "for cause." Citing a team source. ESPN .com reported that the team's security and legal department were reviewing phone records to build its case against Kokinis. The Browns denied reports that Kokinis was escorted from the building on Monday. As for a possible replacement for Kokinls. Mangini would not comment when asked if former Browns quarterback Bernie Kosar might handle some of the GM"s responsibilities. Kosar was recently brought in by Lerner in an unspecified consulting role that could expand. ~ Also, the team has not addressed repotts that forn1er Browns and New ' York Giants GM Ernie Accorsi, a close friend of Lerner's, might return to Cleveland in some capacity. Accorsi helped Lerner search for a GM earlier this year and has been working as a consultant for the NFL ~ince retiring in 2007. Mangini said he would not be resistant to the Browns giving final persdnnel decisions to someone ebe in the future. "My goal is to win and my goal is to improve.'' he said. "There's never opposition to someone that can help us achieve that goal. That's true here. It was true in New York with the Jets." Mangini said he learned under coaching mentors Bill Parcells and Bill Belichick the benefits of being open to the opinions of others. "You appreciate the feed- back," he said. "You appreciate the honesty. You appreciate people trying to constantly improve at what they're doing or constantly help the group improve. You want to hire as many people as you possibly can like that.'' Mangini and Kokinis began their careers together working under Belichick, when New England's coach was with the Browns in the 1990s. Their breakup as a management team came less than a year after former GM PhiJ Savage and coach Romeo Crennel were dismtssed after failing to make Cleveland a consistent winner. Kokinis' parting is just more of the same for the Browns. "It doesn't ttffect me," tight end Steve Heiden said. "I can speak for myself on this because I've been here a while and I've seen some changes. f can't control anything that goes on anywhere else besides at this locker. That's the tntth and that's all rm trying to do.

BEREA, Ohio (AP) .._ The comoluted ouster of George Koktnis as Clevchmd\ general manager barely made a ripple in the Browns' locker room. These guys are accustomed to losses. Pro Bowl tackle Joe Thomas hardly knew Kokinis. who was hired in )anuary and left the club under unexplained circumstances on Monday. "He v. asn 't around too much, and when he was. he was pretty quiet," Thomas ~aid. Everyqne inside team headquarters at 76 Lou Groza Blvd. was pretty qutet on Tuesday. The Browns, who have a bye this week, went about their business as rumors swirled about Kokinis, the events that led up to his departure and who - or if - anyone will replace him. Enc Browns coach Mangini offered no details about the team ·s decision to move on without his longtime friend and hand-picked GM. "An;time a decision like this is made it is difficult personally and professiona11y ," Mangini said. "George is a friend of mine and I respect him and I wish his family well. I can tell you that for a vatiety of reasons things didn't work out. You never go into a situation like this with the intention of it not working out. ''We felt that. organizationany. this was the best decision in order to move forward." That was about as deep as Mangini would venture into the Kokinis matter. Mangini spent most of his news conference politely deflecting questions about why the decision was made. He was asked if there were Notebook This is a Sept. 13, file photo showing Cleveland Browns coach Eric Mangini on the sideline during an NFL football game against the Minnesota Vikings, in Cleveland. AP photo single-file Talladega and everybody following him." he said. "I remember it being really similar to that. And more than anything now, the drivers have learned they have to make it to the end of the race in order to win the race. maybe they don't take chances that they did a years ago.'' Kurt Busch, sixth with three races remaining for the 2009 NASCAR championship. called the lack of risk-taking a byproduct of the restrictor plates used only at Talladega and Daytona. "It's been an ongoing process since they introduced the restrictor plates. as far as this Catch-22 that we're in,'' Busch said. "We have to provide for the safety of the drivers and the fans, and yet at the same time. we have to put on a good show." To put on a better show at a track usually known for three- and four-wide racmg. Busch suggested NASCAR increase the size of the opening in the plates at Talladega but not Daytona, where he said speed is less of an issue. • ··we should go faster Talladega and create the need for the cars to slide a little bit and put more emphasis on set-up than on bump drafting." he said. DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (AP) - To anyone watching. Sunday's race at Talladega Superspeedway looked like a high-speed protest Of NASCAR's prerace ban on bumping in turns. Cars paraded around the 2.66-mile speedway in a long, single-file line after NASCAR made it clear that bump-drafting would not be tolerated. "lt wasn't like everybody was in their cars and we were like, 'Let's get singlefile and prove a point' or 'Let's just follow each other,"' race-winner Jamie McMurray said. "You had to be in the outside groove because that's wliere all the momentum was." McMurray snapped an 86race losing streak after the final 10 laps were marred by two ftightening accidents in which the cars of Ryan Newman and then Mark Ma1tin went airborne. Newman, who was trapped in his car for almost 15 minutes before rescue workers could shear away its roof. called it "a boring race and a ridiculous race" afterward. But McMurray didn't think the race was all that different. "I remember in 2004, 2005 with the other car.

LeBron, Shaq lead Cavs over Wizards CLEVELAND (AP) LeBron James scored 27 points, Shaquille O'Neal added a season-high 21 while wearing out Washington's big men and the Cleveland Cavaliers won their third straight, beating the Wizards 102-90 on Tuesday night. The Cavs trailed by 18 in the second quarter before turning up their defense and relying on their superstar combo of James and O'Neal to win their sixth straight at home over the Wizards. Mo Williams scored 15 and Daniel Gibson 14 for the Cavs, who made nine 3pointers in the second half - four in the fourth quarter when James was out. Williams and Gibson were a combined 7-for-9 on 3s. Caron Butler and Gilbert Arenas scored 22 apiece to lead the Wizards. O'Neal's integration into their offense has been a slow process for the Cavs, but they are starting to figure out how to best use the perennial All-Star center, who came over in a June trade from Phoenix. O'Neal had easily his best game since coming to Cleveland. He made 7 of 9 field goals, 7 of 10 free throws, grabbed eight rebounds and put Washington's frontline in foul trouble. He also endeared himself to Cleveland fans by flattening Wizards guard DeShawn Stevenson on a drive in the first half. Stevenson has been a pest to the Cavs, engaging in a war of words with James in the playoffs two years ago The Cavs have been using the 7-foot-1 O'Neal.and his 7-foot~3 backup. Zydrunas Ilgauskas, together with mixed results. But the pair are getting more comfortable and confident with every second they spend on the floor and have the potential to be a matchup nightmare for any team. Cleveland only led 78-73 after three. but the Cavs pushed their lead to 94-79 by making four 3s as James rested on the bench. James only played four minutes in the fourth quarter. Butler. back after missing one game with a bruised left knee, scored 17 in the first half but he and his teammates cooled off after halftime and fell into a bad habit of rushing shots. Cleveland trailed by 3921 with 9:19 to go in the second quarter and were still down 12 when James re-entered the game with 7:35 left before half. But with James scoring 10 points. Gibson hitting two 3-pointers and O'Neal scoring eight and drawing fouls inside. the Cavs were within 54-50 at halftime The Wizards had no answer for O'Neal and the Cavs used it to their advantage. They slowed the game down and pounded the ball inside to their big man, forcing JaVale McGee, Andray Blatche and Brendan Haywood to hack or pay. McGee picked up four fouls in less than 10 minutes. NOTES: James did not vote and wanted to stay out of any discussion on Issue 3. a proposal to allow casinos in Ohio that was strongly supported by Cavs owner Dan Gilbert. ''I don't want to get involved in that," James said with a laugh. ..That's a sensitive subject in the NBA these days." ... During a timeout, Butler walked to midcourt and hugged a young couple who got engaged while the teams were huddling .... Cavs G Delonte West was indicted on additional weapons and traffic charges stemming from his Sept. 17 arrest in Maryland. He scored just four points in 20 minutes but was active at both ends. Young QBs have picked apart WVU's defense CHARLESTON, W.Va. (AP) - Young quarterbacks have thrived lately against West Virginia and the Mountaineers need some fast fixes if they hope to stay m contention in the Big East. West Virginia (6-2, 2-1 Big East) will face another first-year starter Saturday against Louisville (3-5, 0-3). Due to injuries, Cardinals coach Steve Kragthorpe plans to make a game-time decision on one of three quarterbacks. But it may not matter, the way West Virginia's defense has made youngsters look Iike veterans lately. Two weeks ago, Connecticut sophomore Cody Endres threw for a career-high 378 yards and two scores in a 28-24 loss at West Virginia. And a week after Pittsburgh limited South Florida's B .J. Daniels to 54 yards passing and forced two interceptions, the redshirt freshman threw for 232 yards and three scores in a 30-19 win over West Virginia. Daniels' 104 yards on the ground marked only the second time this season that the WVU defense had allowed a 100-yard rusher. Their play highlights the need for improvements on West VirgiQia 's pass defense, although Stewart has steadfastly defended his philosophy of stopping the run first. The run defense is allowing just 99 yards per game while the pass defense ranks next-to-last in the Big East at 236 yards. Criticism abo is growing about the Mountaineers' offense, particularly when Stewart chose to punt from the South Florida 33 trailing by a touchdown late in the third quarter. NEW YORK (AP) - A city seethes in anticipation. Outside Yankee Stadium. workmen wielding power washers crisscross the walkways on a crisp autumn afternoon. dutifully cleaning each and every groove between thousands of concrete squares. Inside, groundskeepers wielding rakes push pebbles back and forth, smoothing the dirt around home plate. Everyone in town, it seems, wants the place to look perfect for the return of Pedro Martinez. "This is the kind of stage that I deserve," Martinez said. "and in a stadium like this, the most legendary of all places." It will be nothing short of a miracle if the Yankees' new baseball palace remains anchored to its moorings when Mru1inez walks out to the mound Wednesday night in a Phillies uniform for Game 6 of the World Series. The last time the level of psychokinetic energy in New York pushed the needle this far off the meter. the "Ghostbusters" were called in to save the city. Pedro ain't afraid of no ghosts, either. even though he brings a history to the Bronx like almost no ,other. When Martinez last showed his face here - in the interview room after losing Game 2, despite a strong effort - be was wearing a striped jacket that looked like it had been stolen from the set of "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat." Yet it was while wearing the red socks of hated rival Boston a halfdozen years ago that Martinez was rendered a villain in these parts forever. In Game 3 of the ALCS, he was at the center of a titfor-tat. purpose-pitch skirmish that erupted into a bench-clearing brawl. Don Zimmer, then a 72-year-old bulldog of a bench coach with the Yankees. rushed from the Yankees dugout straight for Martinez, who threw him to the ground. New York didn't have to wait long for its revenge. In the eighth inning of Game 7. Red Sox manager AP photo Philadelphia Phillies' Pedro Martinez, third from left, waits to be taken out of the game with teammates Chase Utley, left, Jimmy Rollins and Ryan Howard, right, during the seventh inning of Game 2 of the Major League Baseball World Series against the New York Yankees last Thursday in New York. Grady Little left a tiring Martinez in to clean up the jam he'd gotten himself into. Bad idea: four straight hits erased Boston's 5-2 advantage. leading to a dramatic extra-inning, series-ending victory for the Yankees. But Martinez's lowest moment in New York was still almost a year off. The following September. after yet another tough loss, the defiant right-hander who once famously growled, "Wake up the Bambino, I'll drill him in the ass." was disconsolate and said he never wanted to face New York again. "What can I say?" Martinez said then. "I tip my hat and call the Yankees my daddy." He's been reminded of that comment on every visit since. Taunts of ''Who's your daddy?" echoed again across the Bronx throughout Game 2. supplemented by gestures that can't be described here. Martinez left the field smiling but later that night practically begged Yankee fans to tone down the abuse, if not for his sake, then at least for the kids within earshot. It was not an act. Say what you will about the once-flamboyant charac- ter; at 38. both his pero;onality and competitive nature have been leavened by a nearly two-year absence from the game, when Martinez wondered whether his arm was shot and his career over. Philadelphia took a flyer on him, wondering how much magic Martinez could still conjure up. He has learned to be grateful for every opportunity. "Two months back I was sitting at home not doing anything, none of you were thinking of me whatsoever," Martinez said. "None of you were asking me questions, and today I am here, probably pitching one of the biggest games ever in the World Series, two great teams with a whole bunch of legendary players that are going to be. "I know when you mention Derek Jeter. you mention Alex Rodriguez, (Mark) Teixeira. I see those guys as probably the future of the game. the next Babe Ruth and Hank Aaron." Back in the day, Martinez rarely bothered to learn the names of the hitters he faced: he simply blew them away. Today. he studies each hitter and every one of their tendencies. probing for the tiniest of edges. His fastball rarely tops 90 mph on the radar gun. so he relies more on a vintage circle changeup, an array of curves and cutters, varying his speeds and location. The kid who broke into the big leagues at "15. (pounds) soaking wet with good arm" is now the consummate craftsman. getting by on nothing more than guts and guile. There is something almost poetic about the biggest game of the season resting on his slim shoulders one final time, and in New York. no less. On the ride back up from the interview room to the at Yankee press box Stadium, the elevator operator asked: What can you say about Martinez that hasn't been said? The answer is only what Martinez said about himself. ..Everybody that grows up in the Dominican (Republic) and didn't have a rich life is a sun·ivor. Thafs what we call it in the Dominican, survival. "And in baseball I am a survivor. I'm someone thai wasn't meant to be. An here I am." he said. finally. •·on one big stage.'' Buckeyes poised for hostile Happy Valley crowd COLUMBUS. Ohio (AP) - Two teams, both looking for a signature win, and neither can afford a loss. That's what is on the line when No. 15 Ohio State travels to No. 11 Penn State in a showdown that may not determine the Big Ten champion but will almost definitely decide who it won't be. "'We know how important all these games are," Buckeyes wide receiver Dane Sanzenbacher said. "It's come to a point in a season where we have to win out and we have to play well in November to be a great team." Each team has played one ranked opponent this year and lost. The Nittany Lions (8-1 , 4-1) fell at home to unbeaten Iowa, 21-1 0, in their Big Ten opener. Sin~.:<:: then, they have won five in a row. Ohio State (7-2,4-1) lost to Southern California 18-15 way back on Sept. 12. The Buckeyes followed that by winning six of seven games, the lone setback a stunning 26-18 defeat at Purdue. The Buckeyes follow up the game against Penn State with one at home against Iowa (9-0, 5-0). So they still control their own destiny in their quest to capture a fifth consecutive Big Ten title. "Maybe fans out there think Ohio State hasn't beaten anybody, a great opponent," Buckeyes linebacker Austin Spitler said. "And neither has Penn State. But we're going to find out Saturday who the best is between Penn State and Ohio State." To beat the Nittany Lions. the Buckeyes will have to play perhaps their best game of the season and do it in the most hostile environment. "There's so much energy and electricity,'' coach Jim Tressel said about the atmosphere in Beaver Stadium. "It's a fun' place to play. There's noise. There's excitement." AP photo In this photo taken on Saturday, Oct. 17, Penn State coach Joe Paterno walks onto the field with his team for an NCAA college football game against Minnesota in State College. Pa. Sometimes, the Nittany Lions faithful might carry that to the extreme. That becomes evident when visiting teams almost have to run a gauntlet down a walkway underneath the stadium to get to the field. "It's something. They're throwing stuff at you, spitting on you, yelling everything you can think of at you." Spitler said, smiling. "But it doesn't bring you down, it really fires you up and gets you going. I think it's a positive in a way for us." 1'he focal point of most of that venom figures to be Ohio State quarterback Terrelle Pryor. He was heraided as the nation's No. I quarterback recruit while playing his· high school ball in Jeannette, Pa. - about a 65-mile drive from Happy Valley. Pryor nan·owed his final choices down to Michigan. Ohio State. Oregon and Penn State before deciding to be a Buckeye. Pryor knows he'll be a marked man. He was already talking about it moments after the Buckeyes polished off overmatched New Mexico State 45-0 last Saturday. 'Til probably get booed as soon as I go out to warm up,'' he said. 'Tm happy here. and we'll be ready to go." Tressel said on Tuesday that he didn't feel the need to prepare Pryor for the fans. 'Tm sure he's very aware of that,'' Tressel said. 'Tm sure as we go through the preparation for the week. we '11 talk a lot about poise and patience because that's what you have to do. You have to be a poised guy. . . That's what being part of a great environment is all about." Besides. the visiting team has won the last two games in the heated series. 'The last time they came here (in 2007) it wasn't very fun, because it \Vas a night game and they really put it to us." Penn State linebacker Sean Lee said. "We weren't even able to make their offen~e punt (in a 37-17 k>ss) .... But the atmosphere at both stadiums, especially Beaver Stadium. is unbelievable. It's something you dream of as a voung kid. and finally as a fifth-ye~ar senior, now that I'm healthy. it's going to be great." A season-ending knee injui) to kicker Aaron Pettrey, the Big Ten's leading scorer, puts a damper on some of the excitement for Ohio State. Pettrey was blocked on a first-half kickoff last week. tearing the medial collateral ligament in his right (kicking) leg. He was scheduled to undergo surgery on Tuesday. In his place, the Buckeyes will go with 26-year-old former Major League Soccer player Devin Barclay. a former walk-on who beat out scholarship kicker Be. Buchanan for the No. 2 sp behind Pettrey. Barela): missed two of his three fieldgoal attempts in his college debut last week after Pettrey went out. Buchanan. sick last week. is expected to battle him for the job this week. "We were very comfortable with Aaron from anywhere," Tressel said of Pettrey's range.
