00:00out to big 10 country in Eugene. It is two versus three. The

00:08second ranked Ohio State Buckeyes visit third ranked

00:12Oregon on Saturday night under the lights inside Austin

00:16Stadium. And like we discussed with Ole Miss and LSU, the road

00:20team in primetime is laying more than a field goal three and a

00:25half points in favor of the Buckeyes against the Ducks. You

00:29know, how do you break down this critical big 10 battle on

00:32Saturday?

00:34Well, obviously revenge on the minds of Ohio State for what

00:37Oregon did last. Was it last year in the horseshoe or two

00:40years ago? I can't remember.

00:412021.

00:42Yeah, it was a couple years ago, regardless. So you know, that

00:46sticks with Ohio State, at least sticks with Ryan Day. The

00:48problem here for Ryan Day is that, guess what, he's kind of

00:52bad on the road, one of five ATS away from Ohio State when

00:58especially gets unbeaten opponents in the last six times

01:01he's done it. So this hasn't been a great spot for him. Ducks

01:03are also 21 and four straight up in the second of back to back

01:07conference home games, including six and two straight up five and

01:10two and one ATS versus undefeated conference, a

01:13conference opponent. So the spot bodes well here for Oregon. I'll

01:17say this much. If you're asking me for a comparison sake, I

01:20trust LSU taking the points at home more than I do Oregon

01:24because I just think genuinely Ohio State is a better team than

01:26LSU. So I don't see any additional misses. But I'm going

01:30to take Oregon here. I think this is a great spot for them to

01:33be able to win at Austin. I know it's going to be a different

01:36crowd. It's not anything different than Ohio State has

01:38seen before and some other big 10 games. But still, I like the

01:41Ducks here in this spot.

01:43If we are going to double down on this game and take a long

01:46term approach from this, both of these teams undefeated, both of

01:48these teams in the top five, Mark, who can afford the loss

01:51and still make it into the national championship? Or is it

01:54can they both afford the loss because you think it's a pretty

01:57I mean, I think Ohio State can kind of can absorb it more just

02:02because they're Ohio State and losing to a ranked opponent.

02:06You know, Oregon still has to play Illinois, they still have

02:09to travel to Michigan. These are not like, you know, common

02:12places that they also have to go to Wisconsin late in November,

02:16which also is never an easy spot to do. So I think Oregon is I

02:20think Oregon's probably got another loss along the way.

02:23Genuinely, I think they do. I don't know, necessarily that

02:26Ohio State does, other than Michigan. If Ohio State loses to

02:29Michigan this year, Ryan Day is going to get fired the moment

02:31after it happens. So there is that. But other than the Penn

02:34State move, other than having to go to Penn State, I think Ohio

02:37State is a much easier run the rest of the way out.
