The November 7 football game between Oregon and Ohio State marks a significant matchup in the Big Ten Conference. Once predicted as the game of the season, the highly-anticipated clash between the preseason No. 1 Buckeyes and No. 2 Ducks took an unexpected turn due to injuries affecting quarterbacks Julian Sayin of Ohio State and Dante Moore of Oregon. Both teams will rely on their backup quarterbacks in this clash.
Oregon, currently at 5-3 overall and 3-2 in the Big Ten, has been without their star quarterback Dante Moore for six weeks and four games. Ohio State, ranked No. 10 with a 6-2 overall record and 4-1 in the Big Ten, lost their star quarterback Julian Sayin last week in their first loss of the season, which they lost 30-18 to USC.
Freshman Luke Fahey, a 5-foot-11, 206-pound former four-star recruit from Mission Viejo, California, has taken over for Ohio State. In his debut game against the Trojans, Fahey completed 21 of 38 passes for 260 yards and one touchdown, despite the game ending with a score only in the final two minutes. The Buckeyes also boast an exceptional wide receiver in Jeremiah Smith, who has 62 catches for 1,067 yards and 13 touchdowns so far this season.
Defensively, Ohio State has stood out with seven players selected in the 2026 NFL draft. Their key defenders include fifth-year safety Earl Little Jr., junior linebacker Payton Pierce, and fifth-year defensive end Kenyatta Jackson Jr. Oregon, on the other hand, has only four interceptions and 11 sacks throughout the season.
Historically, the rivalry has seen the Ducks emerge victorious in two games, with a thrilling 32-31 win at Autzen Stadium in 2024 and a 35-28 triumph in Columbus in 2021. In their last meeting, Oregon's running back CJ Verdell scored 161 yards and two touchdowns, including a 77-yard run early in the second half. Quarterback Anthony Brown and safety Verone McKinley III also contributed significantly to the Ducks' victory.
The game will take place at Ohio Stadium at 12:30 p.m. Pacific Time on Saturday, November 7. Fans can catch the action on CBS, Paramount+, Fubo, Sling TV, YouTube TV, Hulu + Live TV, or through radio broadcasts on KUGN-AM (590) and KUJZ-FM (95.3). The betting line for the game, as of Sunday, November 7, has Ohio State favored by 7.5 points with an over/under set at 48.5 points and a moneyline of Oregon +280 and Ohio State -350.
