College Football Playoff semifinal at the PlayStation Fiesta Bowl
No. 3 Ohio State (11-1, 8-1 Big Ten) vs. No. 2 Clemson (12-1, 7-1 ACC)
Dec. 31 – 7 p.m., ESPN
University of Phoenix Stadium, Glendale, Ariz.

Average Line: Ohio State, -3.5

The biggest game that any ACC team will be playing this postseason will be the last game that any team from the conference plays. That’s right, Ohio State is going to assert their dominance over the Clemson Tigers and end Deshaun Watson’s NCAA career one week too soon.

There is a reason that the Buckeyes have been hanging around the top five all season long. It’s because they have solid quarterback play and because they have the fourth ranked total defense in America.

Not to mention, they are only giving up 14.2 points per game. That’s simply insane.

Clemson has played too many close game against low-level competition this season and I don’t expect them to turn it on against Ohio State in Glendale, Arizona.

Buckeyes win and will move on to play Alabama in the National Championship.
