The College Football Playoff semifinal games are quickly creeping up on us.

In less than two weeks, Alabama-Oklahoma and Clemson-Notre Dame will capture the attention of fans across the country. The two winners will compete for a national title.

As the semifinal games approach, the spreads for the two matchups has changed slightly. Alabama and Clemson are still heavy favorites in their respective games. Here are the updated spreads, according to OddsShark:

  • Cotton Bowl: No. 2 Clemson (-13) vs. No. 3 Notre Dame
  • Orange Bowl: No. 1 Alabama (-14) vs. No. 4 Oklahoma

Hopefully the games are a little more exciting than what Vegas is predicting.

If Clemson and Alabama pull off victories as expected, it will be the fourth time the two teams have met in the College Football Playoff, and the third time it would occur in the title game.

Both the Cotton Bowl and Orange Bowl will be played on Dec. 29.
