The Georgia Bulldogs have advanced to the College Football Playoff Championship after defeating the Ohio State Buckeyes 42-41 in the second semifinal College Football Playoff game Saturday.
The Bulldogs will face the TCU Horned Frogs Monday, January 9 at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, for the Championship game.
The No. 4 Buckeyes were leading by six points in the fourth quarter of the semifinal game, but No. 1 Georgia rallied with less than two minutes in the game at the Peach Bowl in Atlanta to pull ahead by a point, and Ohio State could not catch up.
Georgia became the first team to comeback from a 14-point fourth-quarter deficit in College Football Playoff history, according to the NCAA.
Earlier Saturday, No. 3 Texas Christian University’s Horned Frogs came into the semifinal game as underdogs and pulled a major upset, delivering a thrilling 51-45 win against No. 2 Michigan Wolverines.
Heisman runner-up Max Duggan threw for 225 yards and four total touchdowns, while running back Emari Demarcado added 150 yards on the ground at the Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Arizona.
