Playoff Hurry-Up: CFB Is a Blowout Sport

The first-round playoff games were not close. What did we learn?

Alex and Richard discuss the first-round College Football Playoff games, which followed the playoff tradition of being very lopsided:

  • Ohio State crushes Tennessee in Knoxville, Ohio

  • Clemson is feisty but loses at Texas

  • Penn State obliterates SMU (something that was going to happen whether Kevin Jennings threw those pick sixes or did not)

  • Notre Dame is in a different weight class than Indiana, but just don’t forget: Alabama would have met the same fate

Plus, NDSU gets a history-altering win over South Dakota State, Montana State also punches its FCS Championship berth, and updates on the lower levels.
