Who’s Missing?

Ohio State will be without running back TreVeyon Henderson -due to a foot injury that requires surgery- and receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba. On a team with two of the first three receivers selected in the 2022 NFL Draft, Smith-Njigba was Ohio State’s leader in receptions and receiving yards last season. Unfortunately, a tender hamstring sabotaged his 2022 season, and he is also out for the CFP.

Keep an eye on running back Miyan Williams and offensive lineman Matt Jones to see if they will be good to go.

Georgia is without edge rusher Nolan Smith and safety Dan Jackson. There’s not much clarity coming out of the Georgia camp about the availability of receiver Ladd McConkey and offensive tackle Warren McClendon.

Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl News and Notes…Inside.
…Ladd McConkey mum on his injury, but is Bryan McClendon having positive vibes?
…We hear from Andrew Paul.
…Todd Hartley’s wishes for Arik Gilbert after leaving the program.
This and much more inside. https://t.co/SSjrPlDZek
