Whether injured Wisconsin running back P.J. Hill can play Saturday or not, Ohio State linebacker James Laurinaitis is preparing for a long, hard day.

"With Wisconsin, you know you'll see a bunch of power, lead zone plays coming right at you," he said, sounding weary after practice Wednesday. "They pound it. It doesn't matter who they have at running back, they're coming at you."
