Eighth-seeded Ohio State, now among the favorites to win the College Football Playoff after a 42-17 dismemberment of ninth-seeded Tennessee in the first round, clashes with top-seeded Oregon, which beat the Buckeyes in a 32-31 instant classic in Eugene earlier this season. The winner of their rematch in the Rose Bowl for the CFP quarterfinals will reserve a date in Arlington, Texas, to face the winner of fifth-seeded Texas and fourth-seeded Arizona State in the Cotton Bowl with a date in the National Championship Game on the line.
