WATCH: Ohio State football team arrives in New Orleans

The plane carrying the Ohio State football players arrived in New Orleans Thursday afternoon. Watch as the team reacts coming off the plane.

Now it’s getting real. The Ohio State football team arrived in New Orleans Thursday afternoon to prepare for the College Football Semifinal matchup in the Sugar Bowl with Clemson. This comes a day after the Tigers arrived in New Orleans, so we now have both teams on location, ready to face off again with each other in a huge contest that will decide who moves on to the national championship game in Miami.

We’ve got video for you to prove that Ohio State made it to the Big Easy on a not so easy journey in a pandemic stricken 2020 thanks to the fine folks at the Sugar Bowl and the College Football Playoff.

It’s not terribly exciting, but if you are like me, It got the blood flowing just a little and watched up the anticipation and excitement just a bit more.

Watch below as several players deplane to the sounds and sites of New Orleans.
