This game marks the 24th consecutive season that Georgia has earned a bid to play in a bowl game. The Peach Bowl is set for a 12:30 p.m. ET kickoff on ESPN at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Georgia.

Cincinnati go win the Peach Bowl and beat Georgia like we beat Auburn and cap off an undefeated season. Go ahead and claim a national championship if you can.

From what I have gathered on FB there are a lot of Georgia fans that don't care about the Peach Bowl or playing Cincinnati because it's not the CFP.
Georgia won't play another game for 8 months after the Peach Bowl. Championship or not I won't be missing this game.

I’m gonna call BS ahead of time on all the $EC apologists that will claim that Georgia wasn’t motivated for the Peach Bowl against Cincinnati.

If Cincinnati beats Georgia in the Peach bowl, the CFP should be expanded to 6 teams at least. A 9-0 conference champion should at least have a shot if they are good competition. I don’t disagree with the top 4 but the 4 team system is flawed and has been since year one.
