J.D. PicKell explains why Oregon-Indiana Peach Bowl rematch is perfect for Dan Lanning

Key Highlights

• PicKell cautiously optimistic the Ducks could turn the tables on the No.
• 1-seeded Hoosiers.“That might be the greatest gift this football team could have had, in the context of this season,” PicKell said.
• “That loss, I think, was a big reason why you’ve seen Oregon grow and progress the way they have in this College Football Playoff.”PicKell said Oregon's ability to "grow" has been apparent this postseason so far."Very different from last year’s team, when it comes to the way they’re evolving, the kind of ball they’re playing right now in the second round of the College Football Playoff,” PicKell said.
• “I think a lot of Oregon’s growth, you’ve got to give credit to some of the scars they have over the course of this season.”We'll see if PicKell's words hold true, but it seems the Ducks have a shot to make the postseason even more interesting. Come next Friday, we'll find out.
