00:00This one, the odds are telling us that it'll be competitive no matter what.
00:04And that is the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Ohio State and Oregon.
00:08Both of these teams feel familiar with this venue from Rose Bowl's past.
00:13But Ohio State actually comes in as the favorite, as the lower seed,
00:17against the number one seed, the Oregon Ducks.
00:20I think many would argue that maybe Ohio State has the slightly better defense.
00:24Maybe Oregon has the slightly better offense.
00:26Where do you see this one playing out, Bill?
00:29Yeah, I mean, Oregon, do they throw the ball down the field again?
00:33They're one of the few, if not the only, team that's had success
00:36throwing the ball down the field consistently against Ohio State.
00:39Dylan Gabriel didn't get sacked in that first game.
00:41He was 4-4 on passes of 20 yards or more.
00:44And the Buckeyes just couldn't get to him.
00:47And that's what I'm watching. Does that pass rush land?
00:50On the other side is Will Howard, the quarterback that we saw
00:53in the first-round matchup against Tennessee, getting the ball to Jeremiah Smith.
00:57I like the over in this game. Classic shootout.
01:00I'm still picking the Ducks to win, but it's a really tough call
01:04because I think Ohio State, with the momentum they created in the first round,
01:07absolutely capable of winning the game.
