No. 1 Oregon is expected to retain the top spot when the College Football Playoff bracket is revealed on Sunday, following their victory over No. 3 Penn State in the Big Ten Championship. The win also earns the Ducks a first-round bye in the Playoff.
This marks Oregon’s first season in the Big Ten after nearly six decades in the Pac-12, and the Ducks have certainly made an impact, finishing the regular season undefeated at 13-0, with a perfect 9-0 record in conference play.
Quarterback Dillon Gabriel, a Heisman Trophy hopeful in his lone season with Oregon, delivered a performance on Saturday that further solidified his candidacy.
Gabriel completed 22 of 32 passes for 283 yards and four touchdowns, leading a dynamic offensive performance. Wide receiver Tez Johnson set a new Big Ten Championship game record with 181 receiving yards and was named the game’s MVP for his standout performance.
