7 blue chip prospects visiting Eugene for Oregon Ducks vs. Ohio State Buckeyes

This is one of the biggest weekends of college football this year. While Texas faces Oklahoma and Ole Miss visits LSU, the No. 3 Oregon Ducks are hosting the No. 2 Ohio State Buckeyes in a Big Ten showdown between the top teams in the conference.

While the Ducks and Buckeyes battle it out on the field, a few key players will be standing on the sidelines, but they won't be on either team's roster yet.

Oregon is hosting seven high school prospects this weekend that are either four-star or five-star recruits and some are even committed to other collegiate programs already, including one who has committed to Ohio State.
