The top-ranked Bulldogs are chasing their second straight national championship, while No. 4 Ohio State slipped into the final semifinal spot without winning its division in the Big Ten.

The top-ranked Bulldogs are looking to take the penultimate step toward their second straight national championship, having barely broken a sweat on the way to the Southeastern Conference crown. Fortunately for the Bulldogs, they had a quarterback who could throw the ball, too. The Buckeyes, with now-ESPN analyst Kirk Herbstreit taking the snaps, completed just eight of 24 passes for 110 yards with an interception.
“It’s football, and you have to play physical,” Ohio State coach Ryan Day said. “Certainly it’s going to be the most physical game you’ve played all season.”Bennett, a former walk-on, could go down as one of the best big-game quarterbacks in college football history. “I’m pretty sure they’re not going to let us drop back and do what we want to do,” Stroud said. “I’m pretty sure they’ve been watching film on us and make sure that’s something they stop.”After being a no-show much of the week, Ohio State running back Miyan Williams finally turned up at practice Thursday.It remains to be seen how effective Williams will be after sustaining an ankle injury against Indiana last month.
