It’s hard to envision 30 minutes going much worse for an undefeated, top-ranked team in the College Football Playoff.

I mean, that was a butt-kicking from the opening whistle.

Ohio State needed just three snaps to score a touchdown, then Oregon went three-and-out. After the teams traded punts, Ohio State had another three-play touchdown drive.

And so, the first half continued. Oregon punts, OSU hits a field goal. Oregon turnover on downs, Buckeyes answer with a touchdown. Two more Oregon punts, two more Ohio State touchdowns. The early gap became a Grand Canyon of a chasm. Oregon finally scored as the second quarter ended, entering halftime down 34-8.
