The Ohio State Buckeyes are preparing to face the Oregon Ducks in the Rose Bowl in what they hope will serve as some desirable revenge. Remember: Oregon defeated Ohio State back in Week 7, handing the Buckeyes their first loss of the season.

Oregon and Ohio State have already produced one heck of a game this season. Now, the top-seeded Ducks and eighth-seeded Buckeyes are gearing up for a rematch more than 10 weeks later in a College Football Playoff quarterfinal game at the Rose Bowl on New Year’s Day.

Ohio State’s offense has hit the gas ever since the team lost 32-31 to Oregon on Oct. 12, going 6-1 and outsourcing opponents 211-79.A late game penalty helped the Ducks run out the clock on a win, but the No.

In the quarterfinals of the College Football Playoff, the No. 7 Ohio State Buckeyes (11-2) will play the No. 1 Oregon Ducks (13-0) in the Rose Bowl, starting at 5 p.m. ET in Pasadena, California.

The Rose Bowl promises to be an all-time matchup, as undefeated Oregon looks to take down Ohio State for the second time this season.
