College Football Playoff: Notre Dame Fighting Irish VS Clemson Tigers Weather Report For The Cotton Bowl

Unlike the 2015 contest between the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the Clemson Tigers, the weather will not play a factor in how the game is played. AT&T Stadium has a retractable roof, and the roof will be closed as the Irish and Tigers play the college football playoff semi-final in the Cotton Bowl.

Weather, is however, pretty important to the many that will travel to the game and all of their pregame tailgating festivities. Here’s the outlook for Saturday in Arlington, Texas:

The morning hours will go from just above freezing to a peak of about 43 degrees an hour before the game.
