Because he went to OSU?

OSU fans hate him because he's not biased.

He does a great job, there is no reason he shouldn't be doing this game just because his alma mater is playing.

If Griese or Des become good enough to be the 'A' broadcast team...they better be doing the title game, no matter if Michigan is playing or not.

That stat said Cardale only had 4 total touchdowns in the last 2 games? That can't be right, they scored something like 80 points combined, unless they were all rushing tds.

And they deserve EVERY bit of hate they get...

...but they KILL it when it comes to presentation of big games. This four channel broadcast is just awesome.

ESPN is your basic broadcast, they've got cocahes on ESPN2, sports talk radio on ESPNEWS and then just the stadium PA and sounds on ESPN Classic.

All are pretty effing cool. If Michigan was in this, I'd be trying to DVR all 4.

...not the stadium sounds, because ESPN Classic doesn't come in full screen for whatever reason. Plus, I'm not a fan of either team and I don't care to be "at the game."

I don't care about the sports talk radio, but it's pretty cool if that's your thing.

The main broadcast and the coaches broadcast are both pretty awesome. You can sit and listen to the coaches and learn so much, they basically call out plays/coverages/etc.

But I mean, I love traditional as well and hearing the regular broadcast is great.

They've just done a great job all around. Maybe flip around and try them out...

It's funny to see OSU run their offense and it just looks "slow" compared to Oregon.  These are both good teams, but it does look like Oregon has a better grip on what they want to do offensively.

It's still early, but I'm not sure OSU's defense is remotely equipped to handle this type of offense by Oregon.  OSU will still score points, but they haven't played anything close to an offense like this all year.  I know Alabama's offense was ranked highly, but that was a janky offense that could get going or go off the rails depending on how well the QB played.  But Oregon is chews you up.
