Kirk Herbstreit did not hold back about how big of a challenge this will be for Ryan Day’s Buckeyes in the upcoming Peach Bowl against the Georgia Bulldogs.

Herbstriet mentions the home field advantage Georgia has with the game being played in Mercedes Benz Stadium in Atlanta.

“The last time we saw Ohio State, we obviously saw them get embarrassed at home against Michigan. Now they’re back into this playoff. I don’t know if the hill is any taller by going into Atlanta to play Georgia. The only thing worse is playing a really good LSU team in the Superdome.”
