PASEDENA, Calf. - The Oregon Ducks are faster, the Wisconsin Badgers are bigger. Both teams feature powerful offenses, meaning a lot of scoring is likely in store for the more than 100,000 fans who will fill the Rose Bowl tomorrow.

Both teams bring 11-2 records into the contest and both scored more than 80 touchdowns this season. The Ducks do it in a no-huddle offense much of the time. If the two teams just have average games, they would put 90 points on the scoreboard.

Wisconsin finished fourth in the nation with 44.6 points per game, while Oregon was third at 46.2. Wisconsin wants to reverse its result last year – a 21-19 loss to TCU. Kick-off is at 4 p.m.
