Alabama to face Clemson for College Football Title

The Alabama Crimson Tide will face the Clemson Tigers for the College Football Championship in Glendale, Arizona. The Tide defeated Michigan State in a thirty eight to zero shutdown. The last time Alabama kept an opponent scoreless in a bowl game was the 2012 BSC title game against LSU. Alabama’s victory was punctuated by scores by Derrick Henry. The Heisman Trophy winner shared the spotlight with Calvin Ridley who caught two passes for touchdowns, and Cyrus Jones who returned a punt for another score. Clemson earned its chance for the title with its thirty seventy to seventeen victory over Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl.
