The ESPN college football personality offered his quick analysis of Notre Dame-Penn State and Ohio State-Texas.

When the College Football Playoff field was announced, many fans began analyzing which teams received the easiest draws. Some believed it was the No. 5 seed Texas Longhorns (13-2), as they were matched up against the two lowest-ranked conference champions: the No.

Penn State will face Notre Dame in the Orange Bowl, while Ohio State will face Texas in the Cotton Bowl. Winners will meet for the CFP championship.

The effectiveness of the Texas pass defense goes beyond just Barron. The Longhorns are ranked as the nation's No. 3 pass defense team, allowing only 166.1 yards per game. However, their performance in the postseason has seen a drop-off. In that context, they rank No. 67 out of 82 teams, giving up an average of 316 yards per game.
