LOS ANGELES — The Ohio State Buckeyes have landed in California in preparation for their College Football Playoff quarterfinal matchup with top-ranked Oregon in the 2025 Rose Bowl.
The Buckeyes arrived at their hotel in downtown Los Angeles on Sunday evening. After the team arrived, linebacker Cody Simon and quarterback Will Howard both held a brief press conference to discuss the matchup, the chance to avenge their 32-31 loss in Eugene earlier in the season, and more.
