Can Indiana’s Unstoppable Hoosiers Keep Their Streak Alive Against the Ducks?
Oregon vs. Indiana, 7:30 ET
There are just two games remaining for the College Football season, one that saw some incredible hot streaks from myself, and a couple of low points. Unfortunately, some of the less successful bets have come in this College Football Playoff. A mental note to myself for next year: Fade teams on Bye Weeks in the Playoffs. Either way, half of the National Championship is set, but we still have to get the other half here as the Oregon Ducks take on the Indiana Hoosiers.Â
It probably goes without saying that Oregon is one of the best teams in the nation, but they are for a variety of reasons. Their defense is very good, and their offense can impose its will against almost anyone. This is a team that has just one loss on its record this season, and it came against this Indiana club. You may be asking just how good the defense is, and I’ll try to share that here. The defense has held opponents to just 15.3 points per game this season. They pitched a shutout against Texas Tech in their last game. I thought that Texas Tech would win that game, but ultimately played the under for the first half, so I was happy to cash that with ease. In two Playoff games, the Ducks have had a mixed bag of results, beating the James Madison Dukes 51-34, and then the aforementioned victory over Texas Tech with a 23-0 final. To be honest, I was dead wrong about the Dukes scoring that many points. I had their team total under, and clearly they exceeded that by a mile. Perhaps the Ducks just wanted to win and move on.Â
