The College Football Playoff Committee set its field Sunday afternoon. Alabama will play Washington in Atlanta, and Clemson will play Ohio State in Glendale.
The No. 2 Tigers leapfrogged the No. 3 Buckeyes in the final rankings, on the back of an ACC championship, which they won with a 42-35 victory Saturday night over Virginia Tech.
Though the Buckeyes will enter as underdogs in the eyes of the committee, at least one sportsbook sees it different. CG Technology posted playoff odds shortly after the committee released its field:
| BOWL | MATCHUP | FAVORITE |
|---|---|---|
| PEACH | No. 1 ALABAMA vs. No. 4 WASHINGTON | BAMA (-11) |
| FIESTA | No. 2 CLEMSON vs. No. 3 OHIO STATE | OSU (-3½) |
Clemson vs. Ohio State kicks off Dec. 31 at 7:00 p.m. ET.
