The Rose Bowl this year hosts the game between the #1 unbeaten B1G champions Oregon Ducks versus the #8 2 loss Ohio State Buckeyes. Nicely placed is two teams that traditionally would play in the Rose Bowl with a B1G team vs PAC team. But this time it's the B1G champions versus the former kings of the B1G conference, the Ohio State Buckeyes.
Oregon comes into this matchup with about a month off, while Ohio State is coming into it after beating a weak Tennessee team. As this bowl season has shown, the SEC is not as good as many write them as. Ohio State got what I would call false hope and all hype, to head into this game as they think they have a chance. The #1 Oregon Ducks beat Ohio State before, and with just 3 games, 3 GAMES, to go to win their first national championship, the Ducks mindset is going to be on a different level. The Ducks have the best defense in the country and the most electric offense and dominant offense in the country. Oregon has walked through every opponent this year that the B1G has offered them, and this opponent from the conference will be no different.
Buckeyes will come in confident, thinking they are "back", but Oregon will quickly remind them that this is their conference and this year this is THEIR playoff. Ducks are the team of destiny this year, no one is stopping them. 3 games to go, take it one by one. January 1st Ohio State will be reminded that their rent is due.
#1 OREGON - 42
#8 Ohio State - 21
