The first edition of the 12-team College Football Playoff brings a new dynamic to the sport's postseason.
The four first-round games take place on campus sites. The Texas Longhorns, Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Penn State Nittany Lions and Ohio State Buckeyes will host contests on the weekend of December 20 and 21.
All four first-round hosts are favored by at least a touchdown at DraftKings Sportsbook.
Ohio State is the smallest of the four favorites, but it is still projected to win by a touchdown.
The No. 9-12 seeds can be frisky underdogs in terms of the spread, but it may be hard for those teams to win outright on the road.
