Prediction: No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes @ No. 3 Oregon Ducks
By STEVEN VAUGHAN, 750 THE GAME
Each week, Steven Vaughan predicts the score of every Oregon Ducks football game. This week, the Ducks take on the Ohio State Buckeyes from Autzen Stadium. The Buckeyes are -3 on Saturday.
This is a matchup we have been waiting for since 2020: Ohio State travels to Oregon. Both teams have questions heading into this one. The biggest question marks are the quarterbacks. Will Howard is a solid quarterback but not spectacular. Dillon Gabriel has looked shaky through the first five games. This game is going to come down to coaching, specifically the coordinators: Chip Kelly vs. Tosh Lupoi. I give Kelly a huge advantage here. How Ohio State has run the football in the first five games will be the biggest factor. The Buckeys will be able to take the air out of the ball and the air out of the crowd. Ohio State comes in to Autzen Stadium and comes out with a win.
Ohio State 34, Oregon 27
