A college football season that was very much in doubt over the summer has reached its culmination. Alabama (12-0) and Ohio State (7-0) will clash in the national championship game after the Buckeyes weren’t sure they’d even play as the Big Ten initially canceled its football season because of COVID-19, only to reverse course.
Following controversy surrounding its inclusion in the College Football Playoff after playing just six games, Ohio State proved it belonged by cruising past Clemson in the semifinal. A high-octane Alabama offense may be too much to overcome, however.
