Kirk Herbstreit is looking forward to the Fiesta Bowl matchup between No. 2 Ohio State and No. 3 Clemson on Dec. 28 at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
This is an interesting matchup for Herbstreit for a lot of reasons. Besides calling the game for ESPN, along with Chris Fowler and Maria Taylor, Herbstreit played and started for the Buckeyes at quarterback. Also, his two twin sons, Jake and Tye, are freshmen at Clemson.
However, despite all the ties, the longtime ESPN analyst remains professional in his craft and during Saturday’s College GameDay Show, he broke down what he considered the most interesting matchup in the College Football Playoff Semifinal.
