College Football Playoff referees: Officiating crews for Fiesta Bowl, Peach Bowl

Looking at the College Football Playoff referees with the officiating crews for both the Fiesta Bowl and the Peach Bowl.

Though many players would argue that any bowl game is important, there’s no denying that the stakes are just higher for the College Football Playoff. So for TCU vs. Michigan in the Fiesta Bowl and Ohio State vs. Georgia in the Peach Bowl as the semifinal matchups, all eyes were on those games.

Because of that, you’d expect that the College Football Playoff referees would be the best of the best that the officiating world had to offer. Of course, refs are always going to be insanely criticized, especially when they are on the biggest stage in the sport.

Having said that, the crews were meticulously selected for the CFP bowl games and here are the refs that were selected for each game.

Fiesta Bowl referees for TCU vs Michigan

It was an SEC officiating crew — one affiliated with neither team playing in the game — for the Fiesta Bowl. Here were the assignments set out for the referees in Arizona.

Head Referee: Jason Autrey
Umpire: Brent Sowell
Head Lines: Nicholas Theriot
Line Judge: Michael Taylor
Field Judge: Daniel Gautreaux
Side Judge: Sean Petty
Back Judge: Martin Hankins
Center Judge: Chris Garner
Alternate: Scott Walker
Replay Official: David Almand
Communicator: Marc Gervais

Peach Bowl referees for Ohio State vs Georgia

For the Peach Bowl officiating crew, they once again went with a crew not affiliated with either team as it was a Pac-12 group, though fans from that conference will tell you that might not be a good thing. Here’s a look at the refs for the Ohio State vs. Georgia matchup.

Head Referee: Chris Coyte
Umpire: Greg Adams
Head Lines: Darryl Johnson
Line Judge: Dale Keller
Field Judge: Steve Currie
Side Judge: Jeff Dahle
Back Judge: Joe Johnston
Center Judge: John Love
Alternate: Steve Strimling
Replay Official: Jerry Meyerhoff
Communicator: Terry Leyden

The hope for these crews, of course, is that they don’t become storylines for either College Football Playoff game.

ACC and AAC announce joint officiating alliance for college football

The alliance includes including scheduling, training, development, recruitment, retention and evaluation.

The Atlantic Coast Conference and American Athletic Conference announced Monday that they will join forces from an officiating standpoint with an alliance that includes scheduling, training, development, recruitment, retention and evaluation of college football officials.

ACC supervisor of officials Dennis Hennigan will serve as the lead administrator for the alliance and handle the assignment, hiring and training of game officials. The AAC will name a point person to serve as the liaison to the conference's head coaches as well as provide evaluation of game officials.

"We are excited to partner with the ACC regarding the administration of our football officiating program," AAC commissioner Mike Aresco said in a statement. "This alliance will provide both conferences with a deep roster of the best college football officials and will provide for greater efficiency and consistency in the training and evaluation of officials as well as enhanced opportunities for the recruitment of officials. We look forward to working with Dennis Hennigan, who was regarded as one of the top on-field officials in college football and has since become a leader on the administrative side. I also want to thank [ACC] commissioner John Swofford for his cooperation in reaching this mutually beneficial arrangement"

So if you see a different set of officials at games involving ACC and AAC teams, now you know why. The new arrangement goes into effect immediately.

Who Are the Referees In the Ole Miss vs. Penn State Peach Bowl?

Which referee crew will be in charge of the on-field action during the Peach Bowl between Ole Miss and Penn State? They're a crew famous for one specific play.

The Peach Bowl is set to feature two of the most notable programs and head coaching figures in college football. When the Ole Miss Rebels take on the Penn State Nittany Lions, another notable cast of characters will take the field as well.

You may not know it, but the referee crew in charge of the Peach Bowl is part of college football history.

Who Are the Referees In the Peach Bowl?

The referees in charge of the on-field action during the Peach Bowl are the same crew that refereed the notorious “Bush Push” when USC RB Reggie Bush pushed USC QB Matt Leinart over the goalline for a game-winning touchdown over Notre Dame in 2005.

A Pac-12 assigned crew, here are the referee assignments for the 2023 Peach Bowl between Ole Miss and Penn State:

Referee : Mike McCabe
Umpire : Matthew Jordan
Head Line Judge : Darryl Johnson
Line Judge : Matt Dornan
Field Judge : Kevin Kieser
Side Judge : Dion Spenard
Back Judge : Steve Hudson
Center Judge : Ty Druise
Alternate : Matthew Richards
Replay Official : Jim LaBorde
Communicator : Jeffery Yock

The Peach Bowl will feature two of the top 11 teams in the country, per the final College Football Playoff Rankings. Ole Miss of the SEC takes on Penn State from the Big Ten as the latter conference is looking to exact revenge on the SEC after the embarrassing Ohio State performance against Missouri the night prior.

All Big Ten teams had won their previous matchups, including incoming Big Ten teams UCLA and USC, combining to go 3-0 (5-0 if you count USC and UCLA) prior to the Ohio State outing. The SEC, on the other hand, notched their first victory with Missouri’s win, and that even includes incoming member Oklahoma, who fell to Arizona.

3 Biggest Takeaways From College Football Week 0

Normally, college football Week 0 is filled with games that don’t really matter but at least allow avid fans something to watch a week before the season really gets going. This year is already not the norm.

The Transfer Portal Matters

The biggest knock against the transfer portal is that it is tough to build a full-functioning team with only a few weeks of Spring and Fall Camp, and that made itself clear in the games we saw during Week 0. The teams that had the most turnover from last year seemed to struggle to execute on the basics on both sides of the ball.

The 2-Minute Warning is Lame

Fans didn’t like these changes, but some understood because it helped to shorten the game. At least that is what they told us.

College Football is Back

The transfer portal makes roster turnover hard to get a real connection with players. Additional scholarships are killing the walk-on player program, schools are playing for conferences that make zero sense, and NIL is making players unrelatable to the average college student.
