Notre Dame comes into the Rose Bowl with one loss and a ton of confidence, but it faces its biggest challenge to date in Nick Saban and Alabama football.
With the venue being AT&T Stadium on Friday at 3 p.m. CT, there is one Crimson Tide alumnus that remembers the show he turned in at Arlington, Texas. During the Goodyear Cotton Bowl on New Year’s Eve in 2015, Derrick Henry added another chapter to his incredible Heisman season. He recorded two rushing touchdowns versus Michigan State in a 38-0 win for Alabama.
For the player who swept the College Football Awards show that year, it is no surprise that Henry is taking his Alma mater to capture a College Football Playoff National Championship.
