Just before ringing in the new year, we got the second College Football Playoff semifinal as the No. 1 Georgia Bulldogs
the defending national champions, defeated the No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes
The CFP semifinal at the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl in Atlanta was a de facto home game for the Bulldogs
who will move on to face the TCU Horned Frogs in the national championship.
Georgia entered today as one of three FBS teams that had not allowed 21-plus points in any half this season
but that quickly changed as Ohio State jumped out to a 28-24 halftime lead
With quarterback Stetson Bennett leading the way, Georgia fought back after trailing for most of the game.
The Bulldogs nearly doubled their second-half offensive production on Arian Smith's 76-yard touchdown reception alone.
Before that play, they had only 77 offensive yards in the second half.
Here are some of the biggest numbers and reactions from the last college football game of 2022:
