FOX Sports’ lead College Football analyst Joel Klatt makes his picks for the College Football Playoff Semifinal matchups as Ohio State takes on Texas and Notre Dame faces Penn State. He begins by looking at the Orange Bowl matchup between the Nittany Lions and Fighting Irish and points out the blueprint for a win for each side. He also explains why this game is a tipping point game for the Penn State program in particular. He then shifts to the question of whether Texas can slow down this Ohio State team that is firing on all cylinders with players like Jeremiah Smith leading on offense and a suffocating defense. He explains what has changed for Ohio State in the CFP and what Texas has to do if they want to pull off the upset in Arlington.
