Happy New Year! We’re ringing in 2025 with a full day of College Football Playoff action.

We have three games on Wednesday after Penn State opened the quarterfinals with a 31-14 win over Boise State in the Fiesta Bowl on New Year’s Eve.

The expanded playoffs didn’t quite deliver in the first round, but we now have some heavyweight clashes ahead of us as the remaining teams fight for a spot in the semi-finals.

Follow the steps below (scroll for live updates).

Date: January 1st | Time: 1pm ET | TV: ESPN | Line: Texas -12.5 | Overall: 51.5

This is a fascinating matchup between two of the most creative offensive minds in college football. Kenny Dillingham has masterminded an offense that has scored 53 touchdowns this season, while Texas coach Steve Sarkisian will certainly have a few new looks for Arizona State’s defense. This game may be much more about the tenacity of the ASU defense than the ASU offense.

Date: January 1st | Time: 5:00 p.m. ET | TV: ESPN | Line: Ohio State -2.5 | Overall: 55.5

How relaxed is Ohio State? The Buckeyes looked like a completely different team against the Volunteers than they did against Michigan. The offensive stats from the October 12 matchup between Ohio State and Oregon were nearly identical. The big difference between the teams came from penalties and ball losses. Which team will emerge victorious in the second leg?

Date: January 1st | Time: 8:45 p.m. ET | TV: ESPN | Line: Georgia -1.5 | Overall: 44.5

No one will question how well Georgia coach Kirby Smart can motivate his team, especially in a situation like this where his starting quarterback is injured and heading to the NFL. But how well can Georgia move the ball with Gunner Stockton in the game? We won’t be surprised if Georgia sticks with its run game.
