Default tOSU vs UF game day thread

Ok as a member of ESPN insider you get to look at this matchup thing and its shows what team has the advantage at QB ect. I found this to be very interesting. Keep in mind these are the reflections of the ESPN insider.

At QB the edge goes to tOSU
At RB the edge goes to tOSU
At WR the egde goes to UF
At OL the edge goes to tOSU
At DL the edge goes to UF
At LB the edge goes to tOSU
At DB the edge goes to UF
At Special teams the edge goes to tOSU
At Coaching the edge goes to tOSU
Overall goes to UF

How is tOSU getting the edge in 6 of the 9 areas and the overall edge goes to UF?

WR edge to UF? Baker/Caldwell > Ginn/Gonzalez? Or is it just because they have more depth or something?

I don't really think they have more depth at WR either... I was just curious how ESPN came to the conclusion they are better at that position.

Because they needed Florida to be better at something.

As a Buckeye fan I am offended by this report. I just dont get how ESPN can say that since they are giving most of the edges to tOSU. WR is a joke and overall is a joke.

Wah wah wah. Yes this report is dumb but its not like OSU isn't getting 90% of the love from ESPN.

Special Teams are closer to even because of our greatness at everything except field goal kicking.
WR is very close but I think it's a slight edge for UF with Baker/Caldwell/Cornelius/Harvin & then Ingram at TE.
OSU has a edge at RB but it's close if Harvin gets the ball in the backfield a lot.
None of these categories outside QB/DB/OL is very large, IMHO.

As a gator fan who has watched tOSU throughout the year (as well as UF), the WR matchups are closer than you might think.

Florida might have the edge but OSU has alot of depth at WR too. Robiske has made some big plays for them.

Ginn is ultra talented but not really a polished receiver. So yeah he is probably a bit overrated.

I would say if Florida has an edge at WR it cant be huge.

I think the real question is, when does Justin Zwick get in the game?
