As the No. 1 seed in the College Football Playoff, Georgia had the right to select their semifinal site. Unsurprisingly, the Bulldogs selected the Peach Bowl in Atlanta โ approximately 70 miles away from Athens โ instead of the Fiesta Bowl in Glendale, Ariz.
Georgia will travel a bit further for theย College Football Playoff National Championship.
