Oregon has made a statement in its first year in the Big Ten, as it is 11-0 this season. The Ducks were the first team in the conference to punch its ticket to the Big Ten Championship in Indianapolis.
Despite the incredible season, not everyone thinks they are the nation's top team. CBS analyst Adam Breneman has Ohio State at No. 1 in his latest playoff prediction, as the Buckeyes are coming off a dominant home victory over Indiana on Saturday.
All the Buckeyes have to do is defeat their archrival Michigan in Columbus this weekend to secure a spot in the Big Ten championship. It would set up a rematch between Ohio State and Oregon, which was an epic matchup at Autzen Stadium.
Dan Lanning's team is the No. 5 team in Breneman's projections, where they would host the surging No. 12 South Carolina Gamecocks. The Ducks hope to finish off their season strong as their Pacific Northwest rival, Washington Huskies, will travel to Eugene this weekend.
