On the heels of the big Utah victory over USC today, the Buckeyes can look ahead to their CFP opponent. It seems to be Georgia in the Peach Bowl. The other game of course would be UM/TCU in the Fiesta.

In the past, in three separate seasons SEC teams did not have to play each other in the first roud. Assuming the Committee follows suit by not putting OSU and UM together, there are 2 other possible options for OSU.

GA loses, TCU loses, UM wins - UM #1. UM will play TCU in the Peach bowl. OSU will play GA in the Fiesta.

GA loses, UM loses, TCU wins. This scenario, although very unlikely, may pit #1 TCU vs OSU in the Fiesta or Peach Bowl.

CFP pairing guidelines, section 9B: When assigning teams to sites, the committee will place the top two seeds at the most advantageous sites, weighing criteria such as convenience of travel for its fans, home‐crowd advantage or disadvantage and general familiarity with the host city and its stadium. Preference will go to the No. 1 seed.
