For weeks, we’ve known No. 2 Ohio State would face No. 3 Clemson in the Fiesta Bowl in the semifinal round of the College Football Playoff. Now, the stage is officially set.

The field at State Farm Stadium is set and ready for the showdown between the unbeatens. Both the Buckeyes and the Tigers enter the matchup with a 13-0 record and will compete for a trip to New Orleans to play for a national title.

Below are the photos of State Farm Stadium with the field donning the Ohio State and Clemson colors, and ready for the showdown scheduled for Saturday at 8 p.m. ET.

Clemson enters the game as a 2-point favorite, despite Ohio State owning the higher ranking. This will be the first time the two teams have met since 2016, when the Tigers shutout the Buckeyes 31-0 in the College Football Playoff.

Clemson owns the all-time series lead 3-0.
