Tale of the Tape: No. 3 Oregon vs. No. 7 Indiana -- who has the Edge in Eugene?

Saturday afternoon in Eugene gifts us No. 3 Oregon vs. No. 7 Indiana, which is easily one of the most intriguing matchups of the season on CBS -- a physical, high-level conference showdown between two teams eyeing a second straight College Football Playoff appearance (3:30 p.m. ET, CBS and Paramount+). 

Oregon enters with all the recruiting stars and roster depth you'd expect from a playoff contender, while Indiana and Curt Cignetti arrive with a chip on their shoulder and a Heisman-caliber quarterback in Fernando Mendoza. Both teams are built on physicality and execution, which are traits that travel no matter the venue.

Let's hit the tape to stack Indiana and Oregon them side by side, position by position, and find out where the real edge lies.

Indiana and Oregon meet in a high-stakes College Football Playoff showdown on CBS. We break down the matchup position by position in our Tale of the Tape, from Fernando Mendoza vs. Dante Moore at quarterback to which team has the edge in the trenches.
