UO vs OSU Game Comments
Better athletes beating better scheme. The two Duck drops and a couple of bruising runs by OSU changed the whole feel of the game.

If not for the two fumbles by Ohio State, this would be a blowout already. Unbelievable given how strong Oregon came out to start the game.

21-7 OSU with ~5 minutes before halftime.

Oeegon needs to calm down, re-focus, and trust themselves and their system to score 14 more than OSU in the remaining 35 minutes.

Indeed! But if not for Oregon's two egregiously dropped passes and goal line failure, it would be a blowout for the Ducks.

The momentum shifted when they failed to get a TD on fourth down then you add the two dropped passes.....it was an uphill climb from there....

That was a demolition. Lose the turnover battle by 4 (with only one of the turnovers the result of a positive play by Oregon defenders), and still win by 22 points. The reality is that the Duck defense forced the Buckeyes to punt just 3 times all game, with one being on their opening drive of the game and another coming with the game virtually over, and Ohio State choosing not to go on 4th and 1 from the Oregon 40 yard line.

Has Vegas set the odds on Cardale Jones declaring for the draft yet?

Or stated another way, has Vegas set the odds on Cardale Jones making it to a class for OSU's spring semester?

Cardale is a 22 year old redshirt sophomore (went to fork Union prep school for a year after HS) and already has a kid, so I wouldn't be surprised if he at least asks for feedback from NFL. Problem is I think the deadline to declare is pretty soon...

Wonder how OldOwl handled the news of many couches being burned in Columbus in the post-game revelry last night.

Rice would beat Ohio State by 50 points.
