The Ohio State Buckeyes finished 7th in the final College Football Playoff rankings, and will face the No. 9 Missouri Tigers in the 2023 Cotton Bowl.

It's not the destination that Ryan Day and his team were hoping for at the beginning of the season, but it does present plenty of interesting opportunities for the Buckeyes as they try to end their 2023 season on a positive note and perhaps even get an early start on some positional battles for the 2024 season.

Kevin Noon of BuckeyeHuddle.com joins Tom Orr to discuss that and also answer viewer questions in this special live instant reaction episode of the Buckeye Weekly podcast.
