Podcast: College Football Playoff predictions. Who wins first-round games?

The first 12-team College Football Playoff is at hand. Four first-round matchups will take place on campus with one set for Friday night and three set for Saturday.

While history will be made on the field, two of the games on Saturday will go directly against NFL broadcasts, which could create ratings that disappoint and create discussion about the future college football calendar. The games are also being amid massive player movement in the transfer portal that is impacting some teams in the playoff field.

As for the games themselves, Notre Dame will host Indiana in the opener on Friday followed on Saturday by SMU at Penn State, Clemson traveling to Texas and Ohio State being visited by Tennessee. Will there be any upsets or will the home teams prevail in these first postseason games on campus?

Moving back to off the field business, Travis Hunter won the Heisman Trophy, and we’ve seen several coaching changes in the past week. Among the notable new hires are Dan Mullen moving to UNLV and Michael Vick taking the job to Norfolk State. How does Vick’s hire impact Virginia Tech?

Dan Wolken and Paul Myerberg of USA TODAY Sports discuss these topics and more in this week’s version of the College Football Fix.
