2022 Peach Bowl
The 2022 Peach Bowl was a college football bowl game played on December 31, 2022, at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia. The 55th annual Peach Bowl and one of the two College Football Playoff semifinals, the game featured two of the four teams selected by the College Football Playoff Selection Committee—Georgia from the Southeastern Conference (SEC) and Ohio State from the Big Ten Conference. Georgia won, 42–41, when Ohio State kicker Noah Ruggles' potential game-winning 50-yard field goal with 3 seconds left in the game sailed wide left. Georgia advanced to face the winner of the Fiesta Bowl, TCU, in the 2023 College Football National Championship at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California on January 9, 2023. The game began at 8:21 p.m. EST and was aired on ESPN. It was one of the 2022–23 bowl games concluding the 2022 FBS football season. Sponsored by restaurant chain Chick-fil-A, the game was officially known as the College Football Playoff Semifinal at the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl.
