LSU Top-Seed In College Football Playoff
For the first time ever, the LSU Tigers will be a part of the College Football Playoff.
LSU, who defeated Georgia, 37-10, in the SEC Championship Game on Saturday in Atlanta, Georgia, to improve to 13-0 on the season, is the #1-seed in the College Football Playoff, which is now in its 6th year.
The Tigers will take on the fourth-seed Oklahoma Sooners (12-1) in the Peach Bowl, which is scheduled for Saturday, January 28, in Atlanta, Georgia.
In the other semifinal contest, the second-seeded Ohio St. Buckeyes (13-0) will square off with the third-seeded Clemson Tigers (13-0), the defending national champions, in Fiesta Bowl, also slated for Saturday, December 28, in Glendale, Arizona.
The winners of the two semifinal games will meet in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game, which will be held at the Mercedes-Benz Superdome in New Orleans, La. this year, on Monday, January 13.

The Buckeyes defeated Wisconsin in the Big Ten Championship Game on Saturday, 34-21.

The Tigers beat Virginia in the ACC Championship Game on Saturday, 62-17.
Oklahoma, who will be appearing in their third-consecutive College Football Playoff, and fourth in the last five years, will be going after their first national championship since 2000.
