Earlier this season the Ducks won by a point in Eugene when Ohio State ran out of time. What will happen in Pasadena?

Buckeyes O-Line will run out of steam,I thought UTs d-line was good,we know the Ducks are. Last time they played their best lineman Jordan Burch was out.Will he be playing vs the Buckeyes as he has injured a knee a while back

Vegas has Ohio State as a 1.5 point favorite. it's tough to beat a team twice. Ohio State's OL looks highly motivated and out to prove themselves after getting out-physicaled and bullied a little bit by Michigan's DL. They really brought it vs a very good Tennessee front that has NFL draft picks all over it. Will Howard had a big bounce back game in round 1 and last time he played Oregon he played them very well.

I think Ohio State wins by a 6 or 7.

This game is weird because from a strength of team/potential situation, these both probably should’ve been top four teams.

But from a raw “what did you accomplish?“ perspective, Ohio State probably didn’t earn its way into that top group. The seeding issue doesn’t help, but it’s not like there’s a great fix for keeping someone from playing the under-seeded buckeyes.

Reseeding would have at least helped. 

This is ridiculously unfair to Oregon. I'm not saying that they Ducks will lose, just pointing out that their "reward" for what waa, by far, the best regular season is to be an underdog in their first game.

agreed. what’s the point of getting the #1 seed if you don’t even get to host a playoff game AND you don’t get the most favorable path/matchup towards the Natty? 


it’s almost better to not be the #1 seed. Penn State is case in point… they get to host a game vs a hopelessly overmatched SMU team and now they get to play Boise State…LOL.

I mean, technically, Ohio State is the lowest remaining “seed,” so you would have to do something different.

there is a writer who says that every team in some ways is actually 12, the one that shows up for each game. Ohio State stacked the worst version of themselves and the best version of themselves in back to back games. It is just really hard to design seeding to account for those kinds of things

I would reseed by final CFP ranking. Thus, the eight remaining teams (by seed) would be:
  • 1 Oregon 
  • 2 Georgia 
  • 3 Texas
  • 4 Penn State 
  • 5 Notre Dame 
  • 6 Ohio State 
  • 9 Boise
  • 12 ASU.

It feels like it would’ve just been easier to not give the conference champions any seeding difference to begin with, just a spot in the field. 

Which after seeing this, I’d kinda be fine with.

Yup I support giving the conference champions a place in the playoff because I like that it makes conference championships meaningful.

But there was never any reason to give them high seeds or byes.  That was just weird.
