ATLANTA, GA – Alabama is making a fifth consecutive appearance in the College Football Playoff and is, without a doubt, college football’s current dynasty. Much of Alabama’s success is due to head coach Nick Saban, who knows not only what it takes to reach the top but to stay there.
No. 1 Alabama faces No. 4 Oklahoma in the Orange Bowl later this month while No. 2 Clemson takes on No. 3 Notre Dame in the Cotton Bowl. If the Tigers and Tide both win, it would mean facing each other in the Playoff for a fourth straight year.
