Kirby Smart had nothing but praise for the Buckeyes and said that Ohio State played 'well enough to win' in the College Football Playoff semifinal Saturday night.
In order to beat Georgia and upset the No. 1 team in the College Football Playoff semifinal Saturday night, Ohio State had to play its best game of the season. It did, at least offensively, but the Buckeyes came up just short in the end, losing a heartbreaker to the top-ranked Bulldogs, 42-41.
Even in defeat, Ohio State has plenty to be proud if considering the type of game they had against the Bulldogs. Kirby Smart agrees. C.J. Stroud had one of the best games of his career in his last game as a Buckeye. Whether it was with his arm or legs, the gunslinger was making plays all over the field, finishing with 348 passing yards and four touchdowns while completing 23 of 34 passes and also running for 34 yards.
"They've got really good playmakers and they got a guy that could throw the ball to them and got a really offensive line, and they can score points."
