LeBron James is ready for the 12-team College Football Playoff, which he thinks will be super exciting. Ahead of Round 1 action, James cast his CFP winner picks.
Indiana Hoosiers at Notre Dame Fighting Irish
Having watched both teams this year, LeBron thinks both Indiana and Notre Dame are super well-coached and he’s looking forward to the matchup in South Bend. But he’s going with the Irish, who he thinks will win in a close one. He, of course, played for his own Fighting Irish squad in high school, so he’s got to stick with the Luck of the Irish.
Pick: Notre Dame ML -290
Clemson Tigers at Texas Longhorns
LeBron likes Quinn Ewers and the Longhorns to take care of business in Austin.
Pick: Texas ML -470
Tennessee Volunteers vs. Ohio State Buckeyes
You already know — LeBron is going with THE Ohio State University here. The Buckeyes will take care of business.
Picks: Ohio State ML -290
SMU Mustangs vs. Penn State Nittany Lions
LeBron thinks this is gonna be a tough one. But, we’ve got an upset alert! LeBron knows the weather is going to be different for SMU going into Happy Valley, but in watching SMU, he thinks they have a really good football team.
Picks: SMU ML +260
