Real Pod Wednesdays

Keys to the Peach Bowl for Ohio State vs. Georgia


Listen Later

Five weeks after its loss to Michigan, Ohio State will finally return to the field to play for a national championship game berth when it faces Georgia in the Peach Bowl on Saturday.

Having already been in Atlanta for a couple of days for the start of bowl week, Dan and Griffin share their final thoughts entering the game, break down what Ohio State must do well and who must step up on both sides of the ball and make their predictions for whether the Buckeyes actually will beat the Bulldogs on this week’s episode of Real Pod Wednesdays.

A rundown of topics we discuss on our Peach Bowl preview edition of RPW:

  • 0:42: Georgia beat writers don’t think a Bulldog win is a sure bet
  • 2:46: Beating Georgia will be tough, but we think the Buckeyes will at least be competitive
  • 3:51: It feels like the Buckeyes are playing with house money (kinda), which could be a good thing for Ohio State
  • 5:37: Vibes from the first two days of interviews (Note: This podcast was recorded before Wednesday’s interview sessions)
  • 8:51: Miyan Williams is expected to play, but Chip Trayanum’s appearance at Tuesday interviews hints at him playing an increased role
  • 12:54: Ohio State is embracing the underdog role, and it’s one that’s often suited the Buckeyes well
  • 16:06: Georgia’s defense is excellent, and because of far more than just Jalen Carter
  • 19:04: Nothing’s going to come easy for Ohio State’s offense, but it shouldn’t have to
  • 20:43: This is another legacy-defining game for C.J. Stroud
  • 24:04: Ryan Day can shut down the criticism of the last five weeks – or it will just grow louder
  • 25:49: What constitutes a good day for Ohio State’s offense? How many points the Buckeyes need to score
  • 28:17: Luke Wypler, Cade Stover, Julian Fleming among Buckeyes who need to step up on offense
  • 30:46: Ohio State’s offense needs to do what it does best and attack downfield
  • 32:51: Georgia’s offense is similar to Michigan, so the Buckeyes need to have a better defensive game plan
  • 38:20: Georgia’s offense might give Ohio State more trouble than its defense
  • 39:41: Jim Knowles must find correct balance between scheming for Georgia and playing to Ohio State’s strengths
  • 41:57: What the Buckeyes must hold Georgia to on the scoreboard to have a good chance to win
  • 44:10: Ohio State’s defensive line must make its mark on the game like it did in OSU’s last CFP win
  • 45:43: Linebackers and safeties will be crucial in pass coverage
  • 48:08: Score predictions for Saturday’s game (and why Dan picking Georgia might be good news)
  • 53:02: Why we think a rematch of The Game is imminent if Ohio State wins
