It was the highlight of one of the most anticipated days of the college football regular season in years.
And No. 2 Ohio State at No. 3 Oregon didn’t disappoint.

Ducks kicker Atticus Sappington hit the eventual 19-yard game-winning field goal to give the Ducks the lead with 1:47 remaining in the game.
