Oregon Ducks (aka U of Nike)

Maybe Oregon wins like they did in 2021. Maybe the Buckeyes win 31-10. Maybe this comes down to the last possession. Maybe the whole gameday crew will get shot with potato guns. I have no fucking clue how this game is going to go.

Very few games ever have this much built in volatility

Oregon injuries and off-the-field problems piling up before matchup with Ohio State​

The Ohio State Buckeyes are getting some help from the opponent ahead of this week's matchup with the Ducks.

Oregon comes to town, and they are the only ranked team that Ohio State has left on the schedule. They are also fighting for their lives. However, the Ducks have injuries and off-the-field problems that are going to help Ohio State in this game.

Ohio State is going to take advantage of Oregon's struggles​

Several things are going against the Ducks in this game. Two receivers have been arrested for evading the cops. Evan Stewart was charged with DUI after he ran from the cops. Freshman Messiah Hampton was also arrested on two felony charges, as well.

Jeremiah McCllelan has a broken foot, so he likely won't play in this game, either. Running back Jordon Davison will also miss this game on Saturday afternoon, further giving Ohio State an advantage when it comes to personnel. Most of these issues affect Oregon's offense.

That's good news for a defense that was eviscerated by an underwhelming USC offense last weekend in Los Angeles. It was by far the worst performance from defensive coordinator Matt Patricia and something that he needs to fix if Ohio State wants to make the CFP.
