Ohio State began 2022 rooting hard against Utah. It ended the season as the biggest Utah fan in the country.

The Buckeyes dropped to No. 5 in the College Football Playoff rankings after laying an egg in the fourth quarter against Michigan to lose 45-23. In order to reach the CFP, Ohio State would need some help.

And help they received.

Ohio State's foe in the 2022 Rose Bowl, the Utes blew away No. 4 USC in the fourth quarter of the Pac-12 Championship, winning 47-24 and putting an end to the Trojans' title hopes.
