Ohio State earned the No. 3 spot with a Big Ten Championship win on Saturday and will play against No. 2 Clemson in the All-State Sugar Bowl. The Tigers demolished the Fighting Irish 34-10 en route to another ACC title.
No. 1 Alabama will square off against No. 4 Notre Dame in the annual Rose Bowl Game. The semifinal contest was moved to Arlington, Texas due to COVID-19 restrictions in Pasadena.
Already, the betting lines emerged for both contests.
Ohio State opened as a 6.5-point underdog against Clemson in the highly anticipated semifinal match-up.

Alabama opened up a much larger spread over Notre Dame, as the Crimson Tide won another SEC Championship.
When taking a look at the Clemson vs. Ohio State match-up, it’s hard to distinguish the two programs, hence the anticipation of a close game. Both teams boast elite quarterbacks and strong defenses which should make for an exciting Sugar Bowl.
Justin Fields will lead the undefeated Buckeyes into the semi final game. The Ohio State junior looked shaky in Saturday’s Big Ten Championship but must be able to bounce back against Clemson’s stout defensive front.
On the other side, projected No. 1 overall pick Trevor Lawrence will be the key for the Tigers. If Clemson hopes to win, and cover, the star quarterback must have a good game against a fairly porous Buckeyes secondary.
The game will mark another match-up between the two powerhouse programs, their third in the playoffs in the last five years.
Clemson vs. Ohio State will take place on January 1, 2021 at 8:45 PM ET on ESPN.

No. 1 Clemson is expected to get past struggling Syracuse on Saturday rather handily, according to the betting odds.
The Tigers are favored by 46 points over the Orange, who suffered a 38-21 loss at home to Liberty last week, dropping them to 1-4. Clemson, on the other hand, is rolling at 5-0 and coming off a 73-7 beatdown of Georgia Tech. The Tigers are outscoring their opponents by an average of 36.6 points per game.
The odds on Clemson beating Syracuse straight up are so ridiculous that most sportsbooks aren't offering a money-line price on the game. FanDuel, however, is, and has the Tigers listed at -100,000 to win outright, while Syracuse is +4,000 (40-1) to pull off the upset.
That's right. If you want to bet on Clemson to beat Syracuse, you'd need to put up $1,000 to win $1 at FanDuel, one of the only U.S. sportsbooks to offer a money-line price on the seemingly lopsided matchup.
And someone did.
According to FanDuel, a bettor placed an $8,600 money-line bet on Clemson at -100,000 odds. If the Tigers prevail, the bettor will add $8.60 to his bankroll.
The largest bet on Syracuse was $50 at 40-1. As of Friday afternoon, there had been three times as many money-line bets on the Orange as there were on Clemson, but the Tigers had attracted 92% of the money, thanks primarily to the $8,600 wager.
'Obviously, the probability of Clemson winning the game is huge, but people want to have a bet on what would be one of the greatest upsets in college football,' John Sheeran, FanDuel's sportsbook director, told ESPN.

The point spread, at Clemson -46, is the largest line on an ACC game since Florida State was a 48-point favorite over Wake Forest in 2000. The money-line price is among the largest ever posted by a U.S. sportsbook as well.
