The No. 7 Ohio State Buckeyes (11-2) face the No. 1 Oregon Ducks (13-0) in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California in the quarterfinal round of the College Football Playoff. Opening kick is at 5

The Ducks are coming off their poorest outing against the run in Dan Lanning’s tenure and have been focused on corrections ahead of their Rose Bowl rematch with the Buckeyes.

The Ohio State defense has been playing lights out since the match-up with the Ducks, giving up less than 12 points per game and the secondary hasn’t allowed a passing touchdown since that day in Autzen Stadium. On the other side, the Bucks are a patchwork on the offensive line. The unit has performed well at times. Other times, not so much.
