The final 4 college football teams have been released, which means the playoffs are ready to be begin. #1 Alabama will face #4 Oklahoma, while #2 Clemson will face #3 Notre Dame. The games will both be played on New Years, and the winners of each will go against each other in the National Championship on January 7th in Atlanta, Georgia. When looking at it from the television perspective, it seems as if Oklahoma doesn’t stand a chance against Alabama. But, when you look at the statistics, Oklahoma could indeed give Alabama a test. With the #1 offense in College football, Alabama hasn’t seen a team this season who can move the ball quite like Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray. With Notre Dame’s defense being ranked #22 in the country, it’s going to be difficult to stop #3 ranked offense Clemson with freshman QB Trevor Lawrence. In the end, I believe it will be the same matchup over the years with Clemson and Alabama battling for the National Championship.
