College Football Playoffs

     Between Dec. 16 and Jan. 8, 39 FBS bowl games and the College Football Playoff will get played. The college playoffs this year are the Rose Bowl and Sugar Bowl. The teams that made it in are 1st Clemson, 2nd Oklahoma, 3rd Georgia, and 4th Alabama. Although the first three team deserve to be in the playoffs, many argue that Ohio State should of been in over Alabama. Alabama , which lost to SEC West winner Auburn, moved up into the fourth spot just ahead of Big Ten champion Ohio State .Ohio State couldn’t overcome two losses, including an embarrassing 52-44 defeat against Iowa on Nov. 5, Ohio State proved themselves by beating unbeaten Wisconsin, Penn State, and many other games which should’ve won them the playoff spot. Alabamas strength of schedule was nothing compared to Ohio State’s, Bama lost their one of few ranked games to Auburn. Alabama does not deserve the 4th spot in the college football playoffs.
  The number one spot was clinched by Clemson after its impressive 38-3 win over Miami in the ACC Championship Game. The defending national champions will travel to the Sugar Bowl to take on Alabama, a rematch of last season’s national title game. ESPN spoke to Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney and he said, “It’s going to be a heckuva game, I don’t have any doubt.”
   Oklahoma secured a spot to No. 2 after its 41-17 win over TCU the Big 12 title game. The Sooners will head to the Rose Bowl for the first time since 2003 to take on Georgia, which defeated Auburn 28-7.The sooners offense averages an astounding 44.9 points per game. The offense is led by Heisman front runner Baker Mayfield.  First year head coach Lincoln Riley had this to say about Georgia, “They’re always a challenge,” he continued. “There are great defenses in that league. Georgia is tremendous. Great athletes all over the field. Kirby and his staff do a great job. It’ll be one of the best defenses we’ve played since I’ve been here.” It will be the first meeting between these two programs.
    The winners of these two games will meet in the national championship game on Monday, Jan. 8, at the new Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
