Oregon Form

Oregon go into the Big Ten Championship Game as the number one team in the nation thanks to a 12-0 record.

The Ducks, in their debut season in the conference, began their Big Ten schedule with a 34-13 win at UCLA, before heading home to beat Michigan State 31-10.

They then make it three-in-a-row by knocking off one the conference’s best teams, beating Ohio State 32-31.

From there Oregon shut out Purdue 35-0, before downing Illinois 38-9 at home, Michigan 38-17 on the road and Maryland 39-18 at home.

The Ducks then scraped past Wisconsin on the road, 16-13, before taking down former Pac 12 rivals, Washington, 49-21 at home.

Penn State Form

Penn State enter this Big Ten Championship Game riding a four-game win streak that has taken their record to 11-1.

The Nittany Lions opened with three non-conference wins, before winning the first four games on their Big Ten schedule.

That perfect start was brought to an end at the start of November though, as a 20-13 loss to Ohio State put a major dent in their championship aspirations.

Penn State rebounded to win their next four games though, closing out the regular season with a 44-7 blowout of Maryland.

That victory, coupled with Ohio State’s surprise loss to Michigan, handed the Nittany Lions a place in the Big Ten Championship Game.

Verdict

Oregon have taken to the Big Ten like a duck to water (pun firmly intended).

The Ducks have had a couple of close calls, but they have a well-rounded roster and have covered consistently in conference play, so we expect them to stay unbeaten.
