Uncover the Unthinkable: Four CFP Quarterfinal Showdowns Set to Shake College Football to Its Core
Texas Tech has an elite defense, but it doesn’t have a can’t-miss, lockdown cornerback. It’s the kind of unit that will benefit acutely from Oregon not having that guy.
No. 9 Alabama (11-3) vs. No. 1 Indiana (13-0)
- What: Rose Bowl
- Where: Rose Bowl, Pasadena, Calif.
- When: 4 p.m. ET; Jan. 1
- Opta Supercomputer Win Probability: Indiana 82.1%
The game-defining matchup: Alabama’s nonexistent running game against Indiana’s injured defensive front. The Crimson Tide have run for 83 yards in their past two games, and even that’s with my generous accounting to not include sack yardage as the NCAA does. (The official stats say Bama had 25 rushing yards against Georgia and Oklahoma.)
