It was like Bobby Bowden refusing to put a kicker on scholarship and effectively losing two nattys as a result.

About to say he lost four times to Miami off missed game winning kicks?

ducks doing what osu tried to do to michigan. you have to just put it in gabriels hands and live with the results

 

[WayOfTheGopher]

Have to admit Ewers was money on that 4th and 13

Everything went right for Texas on that play, decent protection, excellent route and defense got caught ball watching.

 

[stocker08]

Winner of OSU/Oregon will be at least a touchdown ten point favorite over Texas.

[upnorthkid]

games can't be won in the 1st half, but you sure can lose them and oregon teetering. Jeremiah smith may have 300 yards today

 

[99Gopher]

Ball game OSU!! Good luck coming back against that OSU Def where the entire back end is likely to be in the NFL.

 

[stocker08]

i would guess not. Early lines are offered all over.

No. 1 Oregon vs. No. 5 Texas​

COTTON BOWL: 7:30 pm ET, Jan. 10 in Arlington, TX. (ESPN)

Point spread: Texas -1.5

Over/Under: 54.5

This projected matchup would have the unbeaten Oregon Ducks get through the Ohio State Buckeyes in the Rose Bowl to advance to the semifinals. They’d meet a Texas Longhorns team that took care of business against Arizona State. With that, the stage would be set for one of the most anticipated games throughout the entire College Football Playoff. According to the oddsmakers, this would be a close one but the Longhorns would actually enter as a slight favorite.

No. 8 Ohio State vs. No. 5 Texas​

COTTON BOWL: 7:30 pm ET, Jan. 10 in Arlington, TX. (ESPN)

Point spread: Ohio State -1.5

Over/Under: 51.5

Ohio State came up just shy of beating the Oregon Ducks in the regular season. So, it’s not hard to imagine the Buckeyes getting through the Ducks this time. In this scenario, they’d be playing the Texas Longhorns in an exciting matchup. Both sides are among the most talented rosters in all of college football. So, it’s not a surprise that the oddsmakers have this as a very close game.

Don't buy for a second that it'll be anywhere near this.

ball game OSU!!

way way way too early for that call. but oregon has to cut this to at least 14 before half

 

[Gopher Ally]

It clearly appears Phil Knight has to open up his pocket book some more

 

[Catechol]

OSU going for the home runs and connecting on every single one. Hard to believe it is such a different game than when the Ducks won a couple months ago. This is going to be like 52-21 with a couple garbage Oregon scores.

 

[Sparlimb]

Waiting to hear Kirk say Oregon didn't deserve the bid...

 

[GoForGold]

Old Big Ten is showing new Big Ten how it's done so far.

 

[upnorthkid]

Don't buy for a second that it'll be anywhere near this.

those were the lines from fanduel. i would guess after today if the OSU demolition continues, then yes it will be closer to 6.5 for OSU. They know there will be a huge handle on TX due to the SEC and TX fanbase. that said if it's 7 or less, i would guess there will be a ton of sharp money on OSU

 

[upnorthkid]

if oregon can't run into OSU playing 4 guys at the LOS, they're fucked

 

[stocker08]

Oregon is lucky they didn't run into the Gophers this year.

 

[WindyCityGopher]

Ain’t nobody beating Ohio State if they’re playing at this level.

Time to refresh this....lol.

 

[GopherVotary]

Will the Buckeyes plant their flag?

 

[fmlizard]

Are we going to get media lectures that Oregon didn't belong in CFP?

 

[upnorthkid]

my god.... if i'm ryan day, i'm rolling up 60 if I can as it's going to make TX change how they try play/score

 

[99Gopher]

No words left with OSU up 31-0. OSU is currently averaging 14.5 yds a play.

 

[stocker08]

Also......lol @ ESPN coming back to the game after the snap with Henderson already breaking away for the touchdown.

 

[GoForGold]

Ball game. Thanks Oregon, you will get a participation trophy.

 

[upnorthkid]

you. need. to. stop. trying. to. run. the. ball.

 

[GoodasGold]

Ruptured Ducks!!

 

[saintpaulguy]

Also......lol @ ESPN coming back to the game after the snap with Henderson already breaking away for the touchdown.

Really poor production.

 

[BTChamp]

Nice to see some Chris Carter. Better spokesperson than that monotone nerd from texass

 

[MNVCGUY]

When Ohio State plays like this they are untouchable.....holy crap. Unreal that this is the same team that lost to Michigan a few weeks ago.

 

[Pompous Elitist]

How’s Oregon doing?

What was the line?
