Texas -1.5 vs Oregon
While not the most probable outcome, the chances are still good that the Texas Longhorns will square off against the Oregon Ducks in the semifinals. The Longhorns are substantive -12.5 chalk versus the Arizona State Sun Devils in the Peach Bowl, while the Ducks are short underdogs in their Rose Bowl conquest.

Arizona State vs Oregon -12.5
The Ducks face a sincere challenge versus the Ohio State Buckeyes in the Rose Bowl. Nevertheless, if Oregon prevails, they could face a much easier challenge in the semifinals. The Big Ten Champs would be prohibitive -12.5 chalk in a semifinal matchup over the Arizona State Sun Devils.
