The game has always been played in Pasadena, Calif.Who plays in the RoseBowl 2022?The 2021 Cotton Bowl will feature the SEC champion, No. 11 Utah, against Big Ten East division co-champions No. 6 Ohio State.What to know about Ohio Statevs. UtahBuckeyes' big play potentialMuch has been written about the nature of Ohio State's offense already. The Buckeyes boast three of the top receivers in the nation in Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson, all of whom present major challenges for an opposing defense, and any of whom can take over a game.But on the off chance those three are held in check, Buckeyes' running back TreVeyon Henderson can peel off big plays out of the backfield as well.

Meyer was the coach at Utah for two years while Whittingham was the defensive coordinator. Though Meyer's days with the Utes are long over, he still guided the program to two of its best seasons in history and helped shepherd quarterback Alex Smith into being the No. 1 overall pick.Day, meanwhile, served as quarterbacks coach and offensive coordinator for Meyer at Ohio State, before eventually being named acting head coach in 2018 when Meyer was placed on leave. Day is 33-4 leading the Buckeyes and his unit will look for their third straight New Years' 6 bowl win.Rose Bowl oddsThis section will be updated when opening oddsbecome available for the Rose Bowl.Where the RoseBowl being played in 2022?The Cotton Bowl will kick off from the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, Calif.New Year's 6 Bowl schedule 2021All of this year's New Year's 6 Bowl games are televised on ESPN.DateBowlMatchupTime (ET)TVDec. 30Peach BowlNo. 10 Michigan State vs. No. 12 Pitt7 p.m.ESPN, Dec. 31Cotton Bowl Cla sic (CFP semifinal)No. 1 Alabama vs. No. 4 Cincinnati3:30 p.m.ESPN, Dec. 31Orange Bowl (CFP semifinal)
