No. 5 Oregon and No. 4 Texas Tech each have only one loss en route to the College Football Playoff, and neither loss can be described as a "bad loss." The Ducks only blemish this season came against No. 1 Indiana in Big Ten play. While the Red Raiders lost to unranked Arizona State, it played the game without starting quarterback Behren Morton.
The winner of the Orange Bowl will face either Indiana or Alabama in the semifinals.
