2010 Rose Bowl, Oregon vs. Ohio State
The 2010 Rose Bowl (Oregon vs. Ohio State) has Mr. Miles excited for all sorts of reasons. First and foremost, I would like to see nothing more than Oregon QB Jeremiah Masoli get his bell rung one good time by the Buckeye‘s defense. Don’t get me wrong, I enjoy watching Oregon and I’ve been impressed with the job that first year coach Chip Kelly has done. But if I have to watch Masoli jump around one more time after throwing a touchdown, I’m going to throw up.
This will be one of the better Rose Bowl games that we’ve seen in quite a while. Both teams couldn’t be any different. Oregon runs a sort of run and shoot type offense that is built around speed and movement. The Buckeyes are a traditional three yards and a cloud of dust rushing team who’s strength lies in its defense.
Oregon will be tested as Ohio State will be the toughest defense they’ve faced this year. Ohio State will have all they can handle as they’ve struggled against spread offense teams. As much as I dislike Masoli, he does run that offense to perfection. Be sure to tune in at 5:00pm ET on January 1st on ABC for what should be a good one.
