SAVE MONEY ON TRAVEL DEALS

The suspensions of cornerback Donald Washington and safety Jamario O'Neal were reported Friday by The Columbus (Ohio) Dispatch.

"My first game will be USC (on Sept. 13)", Washington told the newspaper. "I've put a little chip on my shoulder and I've just got to move on, take my situation and turn it into a positive and use it as motivation. I can't play the first two games, that's the reality of it. Those are facts."

O'Neal also confirmed he will miss the first two games because of a suspension.

The Buckeyes face Youngstown State on Aug. 30 and Ohio University on Sept. 6.

Last season, Washington, a junior, compiled 39 tackles, a fumble recovery and an interception that he returned 70 yards for a touchdown.

O'Neal made 14 tackles on defense and special teams.
