So Who Wins It? Oregon Or Ohio State?

I don't think FSU is nearly as strong as Ohio State. It will be close and if Ohio State can pressure/contain Mariotta, the ducks will get plucked.
Should be a good game, will be pulling for the Buckeyes, but if the same Oregon team shows up tOSU may be in trouble. Plus I hate Oregon's uniforms.
Ditto.
I'll say this, there's a part of me that's glad it's OSU and not us - Oregon has gotten better all year long and they are REALLY humming now.
I generally hate everything they wear, but honestly kinda liked the green uniforms they wore yesterday.
Oregon appeared to be a machine to me yesterday. And those turnovers - they were not gifts. The Ducks have an opportunistic defense that knows how to strip the ball and create turnovers. And the offense capitalizes on them. That offense, like it or not, is very hard to stop.
I'm saying that tOSU keeps things close until the middle of the 3rd quarter. Then the Ducks pull away and win it by two TDs.

As a former resident of Oregon I have to root for the Ducks. However, it will not be a runaway. Cardale Jones is bigger than a couple of UO DL's.
I got to go with Oregon, they looked really good against FSU. Their interior lines are playing much better than they did against the barn a few years ago. I also think their coach has done a good job following the guy who put them on the map.
Me too. But I also thought A&M would beat W Va., Mich St would beat Baylor and S Carolina would beat Miami. So I think OSU will win.
I'm pulling for Oregon because they are less likely to become a dynasty compared to OSU. Also, from what I can tell Helfrich and Mariota are very humble and likeable, clasy people. If OSU wins I could see them winning next year also with what they have coming back..
First of all, after watching both games yesterday, it looked obvious to me that Oregon's strengths and our weaknesses would play heavily into Oregon's favor. So, while it stings to lose by 7 to OSU, I think Oregon may have put a whipping on us; so we've been spared that.
I thought FSU's gameplan was solid, they just couldn't finish. Three trips inside the red zone in the first half netted six points. If they score TDs on those three drives and the FG at the buzzer goes in, that is an entirely different game.
I think if OSU plays it smart and punishes Oregon with the run, sustains drives and scores TDs, they've got a good shot (keeping the Duck O on the sideline). However, their play calling down the stretch last night has me doubting they'll follow through with a plan like that. Any mistakes and the Ducks are off to the races.

While sitting here watching the Cactus Bowl between Washington and Oklahoma State, I realized during a commercial break that the whole thing's been rigged from the beginning. And I realized that if I'd been paying close enough attention, the playoff goons have been telling us all along who they plan to install as the first playoff champion. They've been openly taunting us, you see, like some big inside joke that only they are in on. And the joke's on us.
See, look: FSU was obviously very overrated - losing by 40 made that obvious. So FSU is "Banana Tech". And since "Dr. Pepper" beat "Banana Tech", that makes "Dr. Pepper" Oregon. "Dr. Pepper" crushes "Sandwich" in the final, ergo FSU was overrated, that OSU sandwich is a loser, the committee brushes Bama aside as just a bag of chips, and Oregon has been tapped to win the championship game.
The committee thinks they're slick, but I see through their charade.
