No. 5 Texas will host No. 12 Clemson in the first round of the College Football Playoff on Saturday, Dec. 21 in Austin.

"This is one of the bonuses of playing in the first round, but yet having a home game, so we get another opportunity at DKR," Texas head coach Steve Sarkisian said. "School is just going to be wrapping up, looking forward to a great environment. Like I said yesterday, appreciate all of Longhorn nation their support in Atlanta yesterday, but we're going to need 105,000 strong a week from Saturday, 3 o'clock against Clemson, inaugural College Football Playoff game. And in round one, that's the beauty of this new format that you get a home game. And so we're looking forward to seeing everybody there as we build towards it and appreciate all that they do to support us."
