Play-Off Game: #8 Ohio State vs #1 Oregon -- Rose Bowl -- 1/1/2025 at 5 PM [ESPN]

I think Oregon should try to run out the clock.

 

While this is obviously a shock, maybe not a surprise though.

Oregon beat:
Idaho by 10
Boise by 3
pOSU by 1
Wisconsin by 3
Penn St by a TD

 

Just to keep all of these playoff threads consistent, Oregon shouldn't have been in the playoffs. Lol

 

We have a summer house in Eugene, so some ties to the Ducks. I told my wife this morning that it would be OSU and it wouldn't be close. Now I have to watch a chick flick.

 

Time to pull the headache excuse.

 

So he's saying there's a chance?

 

My question would be what has happened to pOSU since they lost by one point to the Ducks and lost to Michigan. Of course, Michigan's win over hapless Bama suggests maybe Michigan is better than their record would suggest. But what has turned pOSU around and turned them into a powerhouse that pummels Tennessee and now Oregon.

 

Me: Headache
Wife: Man up, here's your Tylenol

 

Chip Kelly is on a roll.

 

This is what happens when conferences try to pick favorites and stack all the most difficult matchups with a handful of teams and let others off with easy schedules.

Georgia had a schedule like ours and I have a feeling they are going to pummel ND. These ducks had a lot of close games against a pretty easy schedule. This shouldn’t really be a big surprise.

 

Time to play the trump card. It's a migraine!

 

Except the Ducks played Ohio St and beat them. This is a shocker.

 

The Oregon game was in early Oct, on the road, obviously could have gone either way. I don’t believe they had enough respect for Michigan, thought it would be a walk in the park at home. QB made 2 big mistakes too. They have it cranked up now, clearly by far the best team in the playoffs.

Tennessee & Oregon.

 

Yay, Ducks score.
Only down 26.

 

Midline.

 

And vice-versa.

 

Did Fowler just say that’s the first TD pass Ohio State has allowed since the last time they played Oregon?

 

So I looked it up and that’s true. Besides Oregon only Marshall and Michigan State, with one each, scored TD passes against OSU.
