The recent history between Ducks and Buckeyes has been of the high-stakes variety, beginning in the 2010 Rose Bowl, continuing in the first title game of the four-team CFP after the 2014 season, and carrying over to their first meeting as Big Ten foes in a thrilling 32-31 Oregon win at Autzen Stadium on Oct. 12. That game was decided by big plays from Ducks QB Dillon Gabriel as a passer and runner, plus some clever gamesmanship from head coach Dan Lanning that has since been outlawed. That victory helped propel Oregon to a conference title in its first season, defeating Penn State 45-37 on Dec. 7. The Buckeyes expected their second crack to come in Indianapolis, but were sidetracked by a shocking rivalry loss to Michigan. Ohio State bounced back by crushing Tennessee 42-17 in a CFP first-round game on Dec. 21.Ohio State wide receivers Emeka Egbuka and Jeremiah Smith vs. Oregon’s secondary. What a difference a game makes, as the Buckeyes went from stubbornly running into a brick wall against the Wolverines to letting their dynamic passing offense take over to throttle the Volunteers. Smith had six receptions for 103 yards and two touchdowns in that rout to extend a record-breaking freshman campaign, and Egbuka added five grabs for 81 yards. Oregon doesn’t have a starting defensive back bigger than 5-foot-11, but they are aggressive. Tysheem Johnson leads the group with three interceptions, and Nikko Reed and Dontae Manning had key picks against the Nittany Lion
