DUI muddies Buckeyes’ QB situation … Just when it seemed that defending national champion and current #1 ranked Ohio State had resolved its somewhat muddled QB situation by handing the reins to sophomore J.T. Barrett, it got all muddled up again last night when Barrett was reportedly for operating a vehicle while intoxicated.  As a result, Barrett has been suspended from the Buckeyes’ game with Minnesota next weekend as OSU has a bye today. It also means that junior Cardale Jones, who had been starting for Ohio State until last week, will likely be back under center for at least another week. Meanwhile, Florida State QB Everett Golson is not playing today against Syracuse because of the lingering effects of a concussion. And star Rutgers WR Leonte Carroo also won’t be playing this weekend – the Scarlet Knights are at Wisconsin – because of an ankle injury
