The No. 23 Oregon Ducks will undoubtedly have their hands full taking on the No. 12 Ohio State Buckeyes on the road inside historic Ohio Stadium. Oregon is looking for any chance to salvage its season after dropping three games, while Ohio State is looking to bounce back after a season-altering loss to the then-unranked USC Trojans.
While Ohio State boasts one of the toughest defenses in the country, ranking 15th nationally in rushing defense and allowing just 95.8 rushing yards per game, there could be a massive opportunity for true freshman running back Brandon Smith to build off his stellar performance against Northwestern.
