28-27 Oregon- Final
A brilliant, mercurial, back-and-forth game goes the way of the Oregon Ducks at the very end as Penn State Nittany Lions transfer wide receiver Juwan Johnson seals the game for the Ducks with his game-sealing reception to win 28-27 over the Wisconsin Badgers and win the 2019 Rose Bowl in a classic game in Pasadena, California.

Massive play against from Ducks senior quarterback Justin Herbert, scrambling and finding a running lane as he takes it 30 yards for a hugely pivotal touchdown to put Oregon ahead late in the game!

Long drive for the Badgers and some clutch third and fourth down conversions pays off as Wisconsin finally punches it in on fourth-and-goal with a two-yard touchdown run by fullback Mason Stokke to retake the lead.
21-17 Oregon
Massive special teams play as Wisconsin's punter Anthony Lotti fumbles the snap and can't get the punt off before Oregon's Brady Breeze scoops up the fumble and returns it 31 yards for a huge Ducks touchdown! Camden Lewis' PAT is good.
The second half is underway and Wisconsin receives the ball and begins on offense!

Strong rushing skills showed again by Ducks quarterback Justin Herbert, running around the outside on the keeper five yards for the touchdown to put Oregon ahead.
Interception- Oregon
Wisconsin quarterback Jack Coan was hit as he released the ball and it went up in the air for Ducks defender Thomas Graham Jr. to come down with it for the turnover.

Do not miss a detail of the match with the with VAVEL. Follow along with us all the details, commentaries, analysis and rosters for this Wisconsin vs. Oregon game.
Oregon Ducks: Team news
Head coach Mario Cristobal's team came into 2019 with College Football Playoff hopes but after an opening weekend loss in primetime to the Auburn Tigers out of the SEC in the AdvoCare Kickoff at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas and a late-season upset on the road in Tempe, Arizona at Arizona State, the Ducks had to settle for spoiling Utah's Playoff hopes and punching their ticket to Pasadena for the Rose Bowl.
Quarterback Justin Herbert has been up-and-down this season but his performance today will be crucial to showing why he is seen as such a promising NFL Draft prospect. Running back CJ Verdell tore up the Utah defense and their front line and he'll be looking to do the same to Wisconsin's strong line. Arguably Oregon's best weapon freshman defensive end Kayvon Thibodeaux, a highly recruited prospect out of California, could be the key to the Ducks stopping Jonathan Taylor and Wisconsin's offense.
Wisconsin Badgers: Team news
Head coach Paul Chryst's Wisconsin Badgers will play their physical brand of football like Wisconsin always does, looking to close another strong, consistent season. Running back Jonathan Taylor has been brilliant for the Badgers for all three of his seasons in Madison and will be the player to watch for on New Year's Day in Pasadena. Badgers quarterback Jack Coan will also be crucial to Wisconsin's hopes as they have improved significantly in the passing game already.
What to expect today?
The greatest New Year's Day tradition in all of America rings in the new decade in 2020 but closes out the 2019 college football season for the number eight Wisconsin Badgers out of the Big Ten and the number six Oregon Ducks from the Pac 12 in the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, California.
After losing the Big Ten Championship game to Ohio State on conference championship weekend, head coach Paul Chryst's Badgers began smelling roses and making their way to Southern California for the storied Rose Bowl. The Oregon Ducks won their way into Pasadena through dominating the favored Utah Utes in the Pac 12 Championship game and ending Utah's College Football Playoff hopes. Both Chryst and Ducks head coach Mario Cristobal have built their teams and programs very similarly, playing physical football and focusing on dominating the line of scrimmage.
