Basically what Hoss said...Big AND Fast beats Fast...but a nice top-level summary of OSU's success against Oregon: http://www.sbnation.com/college-foot...gy-xs-os-plays

and as much as all of us think OU's system is not the one to have on our teams, outside of the OSU and MSU fans... Mich and Nebraska would be very happy with the success they've had in relation to our recent accomplishments.

Stupid move on his part. Three games as a starter? He'll be forgotten faster than you can say Terelle Pryor.

This. And you can only make so much money signing autographs, which is all that he will be qualified for in five years.

Absolutely, and a lot of other programs as well. Two NC appearances in four years, a couple Rose Bowls...OR is doing very well.

You just wonder if maybe they could seek a little more balance on offense and trade some speed for power by incorporating some gap-blocked stuff. Trade out some jabs for uppercuts.They could easily add Wham to that scheme for instance, and learning to cut-block would have helped them immensely Monday night.

I'm stunned that Cardale is returning. And thrilled. That dude has the ability to be REALLY good. Great news!

[THE_WIZARD_]

Great news would be...if you actual had that reverse lobotomy done...this is just good news...

[Hannibal]

Wise choice by Cardale to return to OSU and play school.

Won't help. Harbaugh is in town now, for about 4 years or so, and we all know what he did to Pete Carroll

Michigan 37
OSU 23

At least.

From everything I've read, Cardale was gone. He had made his mind up and told most of the people around him including his would-be agent. UFM would not taken a 3 hour detour to Cleveland -- cutting into an important NJ recruiting trip -- if he didn't have a real need to speak with Cardale. Best guess is that after speaking with UFM and Ginn, Sr he changed his mind. So they did some spin on the press conference and turned it into setting an example or some such line.

Whatever. Jimmy crack corn and I don't care. I'm really happy that he's back. I think he has the potential to be ridiculously good. And OSU's skill players and OL combined with his arm and ability to really stretch the field vertically could be good...really good.

Harbaugh @ Stanford did pretty well against Pete Carroll.

[Rocky Bleier]

Wow, Cardale Jones has played 3 games and he calls a press conference to say he's staying in school. Look at me, look at me, look at me. Why was there even any speculation? He had less chance of an NFL career than JaMarcus Russell if he left. Oh, maybe because he famously tweeted that he wasn't interested in school? So this was all about cleaning up his image. ;-)

[froot loops]

He had called the press conference to announce he was going pro.
