Fittingly, the Rose Bowl features an old-school matchup between a Midwest team and a team from the west coast. Oregon takes on Ohio State in a rematch of a thrilling regular season game. Oddsmakers predict the Buckeyes will turn the tables, but I'm not convinced.
Oregon's literally done nothing wrong this season. They're 13-0, with a high-powered offense capable of winning shootouts and a defense good enough to get stops when they need to. I think Dillon Gabriel is a better quarterback than Will Howard, and while the OSU wide receivers are capable of getting open on just about anybody, I'm not as sold on their defense being able to get Oregon off the field. Howard, meanwhile, played well against Tennessee, but he's had missteps on big stages in the past.
Take the Ducks getting a few points.
