Ohio State Football 2023

If GA not in playoff and ranked ahead of OSU, they go to Orange. Fine by me. I'll take a Friday night Cotton Bowl
 
This will be a joke, but everyone is projecting this matchup. It might change after tonight:

Orange Bowl:

Final projection: Ohio State vs. Louisville

There's one caveat to go over before locking in Buckeyes-Cardinals in the Orange Bowl. Orange Bowl senior director of communications Mike Liotta said they will take the ACC's next highest-ranked team in the playoff top 25 if the league's champion is in the playoff. Breaking that down, if unbeaten FSU knocks off Louisville to reach the final four, the Cardinals go here. There's a chance an SEC team is placed here to play the Cardinals and if that's the case, the New Year's Six matchups change considerably.

Unless both SEC get in playoff or they rank OSU ahead of the one who doesn't get in, not happening because of tie in. Athletic said Cotton vs TX, CBS says cotton vs Mizz. Could also be Fiest or Peadh

These non playoff games suck now since your best players sit out due to entering the draft
 
When five or six of your best players sit out, who cares?
Whether people care or not is irrelevant. The game does count whether people like it or not. Also, you don't play these teams very often and definitely don't want to lose to a team you aren't going to see for a long time or maybe never ever again.

It will be OR....we will see them very soon again even if we lose....as in next fall

If OSU loses it counts but if they win it doesn't correct.
