Ohio State hasn't been the underdog in a game since the 2020 CFP title game, but the Buckeyes have had success in that role in the playoff.
For the majority of Buckeyes players, it is an unprecedented one.in Saturday night's College Football Playoff semifinal at the Peach Bowl, the Buckeyes will not be favored to win.
This will be Ohio State's seventh CFP game. The only time the Buckeyes have been favored came before their worst performance – a 31-0 shellacking by Clemson six years ago at the Fiesta Bowl when OSU was a 1-point favorite. In 2020, the Buckeyes dominated Clemson 49-28 as a 7-point underdog in that Sugar Bowl semifinal. That was a revenge game for the 2109 semifinal heartbreaker in which Ohio State fell 29-23 to the Tigers as a 2½-point underdog in the Fiesta Bowl.
The Michigan loss caused days of painful reflection that didn't start to fade until Utah's victory over USC gave Ohio State new life. Now the Buckeyes want to find the silver lining in that defeat.
