As the Orange Bowl approaches, Florida State and Georgia are preparing for the game amidst significant roster changes, with an estimated 40-45 players missing from both teams combined. Florida State will be without several key players, including 13 starters/co-starters and 18 players from the ACC Championship game's two-deep roster, due to opt-outs and entries into the transfer portal. Freshman quarterback Brock Glenn is set to start for FSU after Tate Rodemaker's departure. Georgia's safety Javon Bullard confirmed he would be playing, while tight end Brock Bowers is among the injured players for Georgia. Despite not making the playoffs, Georgia's players, including Ladd McConkey who seems set to play, are focused on winning the Orange Bowl. Both teams have arrived in Miami, with FSU's coach Mike Norvell acknowledging the challenges but remaining positive about the opportunity for younger players. Meanwhile, Texas A&M is also facing roster limitations with no more than 55 scholarship players available for the Texas Bowl against Oklahoma State, including only three scholarship receivers. The game is scheduled for December 27, with the Duke's Mayo Bowl featuring UNC vs. WVU also taking place on the same day.

#FSU QB Brock Glenn on the opportunity to play on Saturday against Georgia. “When I first started, if you ever told me this would happen, this story, I wouldn’t believe you. It’s God’s plan and his process and I trust the process and I’m excited for the opportunity.” #Noles https://t.co/06NKIlYVbP
Brock Glenn impressive at the podium as usual. Says FSU is “taking this game seriously.” Further says “we’re all we got, we all we need,” multiple times. Seems like starting the ACC title game did wonders, but all be revealed on Saturday night. @TomahawkNation

Texas A&M is expected to have no more than 55 scholarship players available to play vs. Oklahoma State in the Texas Bowl. The Aggies also will have only three scholarship receivers dressed out. Here is a closer look at their roster before tomorrow's game. https://t.co/iR9oSMEj94
There will most likely be around 40-45 players missing from the Orange Bowl between Florida State and Georgia combined. The whole situation is a mess, with the portal, FSU’s CFP ranking, opt-outs, etc..
Florida State is now down NINETEEN players for the Orange Bowl. https://t.co/gdS18o1V6i
Florida State will be without as many as 20 players against UGA. At this rate, poor Mike Norvell sounds like the Black Night from Monty Python and the Holy Grail. The Orange Bowl has devolved into a joke exhibition game, but don't blame FSU for that: https://t.co/Z4d0DtUzZ8 https://t.co/CuMCjJgCcS
“We want to go out with a win.” Georgia appears to be bucking the opt-out trend, other than some injured players - including Brock Bowers. https://t.co/N6DRWVwA6T
