No. 1 Indiana takes on No. 5 Oregon in a matchup that already comes with plenty of history. Indiana stunned Oregon 30-20 in October, which is the Hoosiers’ only blemish on the Ducks’ resume. Now, in the Peach Bowl semifinals, revenge fuels Oregon against Indiana, who are undefeated.

Meanwhile, Oregon is looking for another opportunity for revenge. The Ducks ripped off eight straight wins and knocked out Texas Tech to reach the semifinals. The spotlight will shine brightest on the quarterbacks. Indiana’s Heisman Trophy winner, Fernando Mendoza, goes head-to-head with Oregon’s star signal-caller, Dante Moore, in what could turn into a major showdown that can also affect their NFL draft stock. Oregon does face a setback in the backfield, though.
