No. 1 Alabama and No. O Ohio State will meet Monday night at Hard Rock Stadium in the Hard Ledge Football Football Playoff National Championship – a contest that could be one of the most exciting title game matchups in recent memory. Crimson Recruitment is the way to the conference title through the SEC, while undefeated bookies needed just six games to crown their conference and earn a berth in the CFP.
That was where things became really interesting. Ohio State quarterback Justin Fields blasted 385 yards and 6 touchdowns with Vs. 2 Crimson despite suffering a late junior injury in the second quarter. Speaking of explosions, Trey Sermon has run for 6,636 yards and four touchdowns in the last three games, and the bookies have benefited from the offensive line coming into the era as they have found their offensive identity. Showed defense against the Tiger, which was the most important development of the Sugar Bowl. Clemson quarterback Trevor Lawrence was harassed all night, with the middle – a quarterback having a bad dream.
The big story of Columbus, Ohio last week includes the availability of a player. All eyes are on Fields’ ribs, and coach Ryan Day insists his superstar will be ready to go on Monday night. Buccaneers are also working on the Covid-19 issue, which has raised the possibility of a delay in the game until January 18.
Led by Alabama, Heisman Trophy-winning wide receiver Devonta Smith and star quarterback Mack Jones had no issues with No. 4 Notre Dame in the Rose Bowl. 95.95 per game thanks to the brilliant play-calling gender of offensive coordinator Steve Sarkisian. Yard offense has been reported. His ability to plan to get his playmakers – including running back Nazi Harris – the ball in space has been buoyant all season, no matter what the opposing defense gives him. There may be a small concern that Circassian’s new role as Texas coach could be a distraction, but Alabama coach Nick Saban has plenty of experience preparing for big games with assistants, ready for big roles elsewhere.
It will be interesting to see how Saban and defensive coordinator Pete Golding plan to slow down the fields. The double-threat star had plenty of success through the air with huge receivers Chris Olav and Garrett Wilson, and also had a tighter end than the whole year.
Our CBS Sports College College football experts believe that will come down from Monday, as Alabama enters the 2021 CFP National Championship more than a touchdown over Ohio State.
Alabama vs. Ohio State Predictions, Elections
Latest hurdles:
Alabama Crimson Tide-9
Take things in stride and try not focus too much on the problem. Ohio State will win this lonely. Buccaneers’ seven teammates played light against Clemson, especially in the middle. That would prove costly for the Alabama offensive line that is missing Star Center and Remington Award winner Landon Dickerson. On the other side of the ball, Buccaneer’s offensive line had its success at the end of the season, which, under normal circumstances, would be in the middle of the 12-game schedule. Here it is important. How many teams find their niche out of the normal schedule? Tons. It happens every year. This is essentially where the bookies are right now. That would be the line of the Scrimmage game. Ohio State will win more fights than Alabama, which will lead to tougher fights, including under hits. Pick: Ohio State +8 | Ohio State 35, Alabama 31 – Barrett Sally
Will bookies start with many keys? And if so, what conditions will affect it? There is information to be had when handling a game, but it is also important to remember that the state of Ohio is not the first to deal with such issues. Even against Clemson last week, it was Ohio State without some players that could still win for sure. Still, as good as Clemson can be, Alabama is a completely different case. Assuming a large number of rosters are not missing, this is the Ohio State team capable of giving Alabama problems. The Crimson Tide has been a juggernaut throughout the season. His offense is led by three players who finished in the first five of the Heisman Trophy with wide receiver Divonta Smith as well as quarterback Mack Jones and the winner chasing Nazi Harris. They also have one of the best offensive lines in the country, and oh, they could get WR Jelen Waddle back this week as well. The emergence of the Oklahoma Transfer Train train preaching (rush of 63 63 yard yards and four touchdowns in the last three games) has added another dimension to Ohio State offense and carries a lot of weight off Justin Fields ’shoulders. The bookies will be able to move the ball over the Alabama defense. That’s why, with the information now available, Buccaneers covers the spread. Pick: Ohio State +8 | Alabama 38-31 – Tom Fornelly
You have to be Alabama to beat Alabama. That is, keep the stability of fast-strike weapons that can outscore anyone. He worked with the third-worst defense for the national champion for LSU last year. He has done a better job for Alabama than ever before. The bookies have weapons to win the shootout. Sustainable tailback? Check (tray sermon) high flying receivers? Check out (Chris Olav, Garrett Wilson) Star quarterback? Check (Justin Fields) The magic number to win Monday is at least 40 points. Both teams will get there. Alabama will hang. rarely. Pick: Ohio State +8 | Alabama 48, Ohio State 42 – Dennis Dodd
Alabama doesn’t win the game very often, and its winning style this year – taking an early advantage from the devastating first punch – makes me think it would be a tide defending the lead in the second half. So this hack comes down to whether Alabama can keep the backdoor off, and my hunter, Florida’s SEC Championship game at the end of the pressure lesson, Justin Fields and the mighty bookies offense are present to be present at the end as their ultimate challenge. In the game. I think the spread is a bigger sweat than the game, and Alabama wins the classic in wire-to-wire fashion. Pick: Alabama-8 | Alabama 48, Ohio State 35 – Chip Patterson
Clemson’s flying was impressive, and admittedly, unexpected. For all the controversy over how many games he has played, Ohio State has proved that he deserves to get a shot at Alabama, not just in the playoffs. The Buckeyes have the speed and toughness to keep up with Alabama’s offense – but can they make the necessary stops? Alabama has been the best team of the season. They have the best offensive players and will win – not just before the Buckeyes cover eight points. Pick: Ohio State +8 | Alabama 38, Ohio State 31 – Ben Kerscheval
Alabama has been the best team in college football all season, and I have no reason to believe that the Crimson Tide won’t even come to an end on Monday night. Alabama is perfect for hitting the state of Ohio where it is the weakest – in the secondary – whether or not Jillian Waddell can return. Limited Justin fields, especially in an ongoing game, make it difficult for the Buccaneers to continue. Pick: Alabama-8 | Alabama 37, Ohio State 27 – Jerry Palm
It’s hard to pick a one-point favorite against Alabama when they can only win a few points once this season. Yes, Ohio State is probably the best team Bama has ever played, but despite stripping Clemson in the semifinals, he has not faced such offenses. This should be a high-scoring game, but I think the difference comes on the ground where the tides have a few more answers to Traji’s doctrine than the Buckeyes did for Nazi Harris. If Alabama can run the ball consistently, it will limit the chances of a collision on Ohio State’s big game, which Clemson could not. Expect an exciting, competitive national title game covering tides early in the fourth quarter. Keep in mind though: Ohio State is 7-0 since 2009 with seven points or more underlying. I prefer against this trend, but it is worth considering. Pick: Alabama-8 | Alabama 41, Ohio State 31 – Adam Silverstein
I expect this game to be a shootout every day, for which some hope. The offense of Justin Fields and Ohio State should be made closer to where it came from in the win against Clemson and it should do little damage against the recruiting medium. However, in the end, it was too late to get the final step on the butcase in the Hezman winner Devonta Smith, McJones and this Alabama offense to see what an instant classic could be. Pick: Ohio State +8 | Alabama 42, Ohio State 35 – Jack Crosby
