Ohio State vs. Clemson College Football Playoff semifinal preview and prediction

Ohio State will take on Clemson in the Sugar Bowl semifinal of the College Football Playoff. Here is a preview and prediction for the game.

We’re finally here — the College Football Playoff! In a year that has ticked by at a snail’s pace, it’s hard to believe 2020 is almost over and the college football season that almost wasn’t is coming to an end.

At 6-0, Ohio State finds itself in familiar territory, back in the CFP for the fourth time and back-to-back appearances for the first time. The Buckeyes also know their foe well, matching up with the Clemson Tigers for the third- straight time in their playoff history.

The first two times on the dance floor with the Tigers didn’t go as planned, one a monumental embarrassment, the other an all-time classic, both ending with OSU on the wrong side of the scoreboard.

Most believe the Buckeyes have little to no shot at knocking off Clemson in the Sugar Bowl on January 1. But that’s why we play the games, and in a season as strange as 2020 has been… anything can happen.
