Since the YSU QBs and OSU QBs will never be on the field at the same time, nor will they play directly against each other, I could care less about comparing them to see who has "the edge". It is an absolute meaningless bit of trivia--and a subjective one at that. The only edge that matters is who will win each match up out on the field.

You would be better served by giving a grade and a summary for the position, but then tying up the preview with who gets the edge when going head to head. The obvious examples would be offense vs. defense, O Line vs. D Line, Secondary vs. Receivers. That would make for a much more interesting and much more relevant analysis than some hypothetical QB vs QB matchup. E.g., "However talented YSU's star DT Savage is, we can't see him beating Cordle or Rehring on very many meaningful occasions. Edge: OSU."

i like this idea a lot, and even though i think it's more difficult to make these kinds of matchup determnations, it also makes the previews somewhat more interesting in terms of looking for specific things that are going on during the game (ie, player matchups, formations, etc)
