College Football Playoff drama peaks tonight as the only unbeaten, Big Ten-champion Indiana Hoosiers collide with Oregon in a high-stakes semifinal that doubles as an October-grudge rematch.

Game Details & Storylines

Fernando Mendoza, the newly minted Heisman Trophy quarterback, leads Curt Cignetti’s Hoosiers against an Oregon squad whose lone blemish came at Indiana’s hands in Eugene. The Ducks enter 13-1 after finishing third in the conference, haunted by two Dante Moore interceptions in the earlier loss.

Kickoff is set for 7:30 p.m. ET / 4:30 p.m. PT. The Peach Bowl serves as the semifinal stage inside Mercedes-Benz Stadium, home of the NFL’s Atlanta Falcons.
