The first-ever 12-team College Football Playoff is underway. The first two games of the tournament weren’t the most competitive, as the two home teams, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and Penn State Nittany Lions, had dominant wins over the Indiana Hoosiers and SMU Mustangs, respectively. The third first-round matchup took place on Saturday afternoon, with the Texas Longhorns hosting the Clemson Tigers.
While Texas did have home-field advantage at DKR-Texas Memorial Stadium, the College Football Playoff committee wanted to treat it like a neutral-site game. By that, we mean show Clemson videos in the home stadium of Texas.
