Which game would you consider to be a better game and why?
Rose bowl - came back from 17 point deficit.
Peach bowl - came back from 14 point deficit. Twice. Fun fact: With 4:18 left to go in 4Q Ohio State had 91.8% chance of winning.

My only swipe at last week's Peach Bowl win is that we didn't get a hand on the FG attempt to seal it.

Rose bowl for sure, that was pretty much a once in a lifetime kind of game and experience.
-We hadn't played for a national title in 35 years so to clinch a spot like that was something else
-We hadn't really "arrived" yet, so it still very much felt like we were crashing the party. Now we're the undefeated defending champs.
-that was a really fricking good OU team that had one minor blip but beat many highly ranked teams and lived in the top 5 most of the year. There was zero doubt they were in the playoffs whereas OSU needed some help to get in
-they had the Heisman trophy winner at QB
-We got down huge early bt fought and clawed back the entire 2nd half. It felt dead even for about 2.5ish quarters. With OSU frankly we looked like crap for a good part of it. It felt more like a huge exhale that we were able to come back and win rather than going toe to toe the whole way with another heavyweight
-We'd never played OU before in school history
-Much better setting in the rose bowl compared to the benz where we'd already played twice this year and many UGA fans have been to dozens of times
-Sony's redemtpion arc, fumlbing the ball leading to a scoop and score late in the 4th that looked like it would lose the game only to come back for hte GW
-Double OT including the blocked FG in their 2nd one
-The walkoff TD to go to the natty
I think the rose bowl is superior to the peach in just about every way.

I never thought for a moment we'd lose the Rose Bowl, even when they scored on that trick play at the end of the first half to go up 17 or when they ran back Sony's fumble for a TD late in the fourth.
I had given up in the third quarter of the Peach Bowl, gone through all my stages of grief, and had accepted the loss.
They're both great games, but I'd say the Rose Bowl. We played like garbage at times during the Peach Bowl, but in the Rose Bowl we played well enough throughout the game that I never gave up hope.

I would say Rose Bowl because it felt like we WON that game with the blocked FG and Sonys run to win it. Despite the heroics of our offense in the Peach Bowl I still feel like O State lost a game they should have won with the missed FG that guy would normally make after we were behind what felt like the whole game. Much less of an enjoyable experience. Even Bowers commented after the win that he still felt like they lost the game.
Granted a W is a W but that’s just my takeaway.

He has never made a 50+ yard FG in his career.

No takers on the peach bowl yet - interesting

Yes…but he was 6-6 from 40 to 49 and that one was 50. Plus didn’t he make a 48 yarder earlier? I’ll take it but it’s not like it was a 57 yarder or anything.

He BARELY made the 48 yarder. Here's a video of Pat McAfee catching ball after it goes through the uprights.
McAfee Catch
Didn't clear the crossbar by much. Both of Pod's misses from similar distances were much further up the upright.

I would have to go with the Rose Bowl because of the overtime blocked FG followed by Sony's TD. We won the Rose Bowl but OSU lost the Peach Bowl. Both were great games.
I wish Chubb and Sony could've won natty rings. They were awesome.

I'll give the Peach Bowl the slight edge because of the opponent. I dislike Ohio State way more then I do OU.

Hey what's that weird thing Ohio state fans do when they yell "Oh!" And then they point to each other and then they yell something back in response? maybe the other group is saying "state"? I couldn't catch it, but it made me feel very xenophobic.

dude yes
It's the same angle on both pictures.
In both pictures Ring's helmet is abotu halfway up the "TE" in ohio "STATE". The photo angle is the exact same because it's the exact same picture, only 1 is massively photoshopped.
ETA: I see you edited..
