Gameday arrives for Clemson, Alabama

The Alabama Crimson Tide and Clemson Tigers meet Monday night in Tampa, Florida, to face off in the College Football Playoff championship game. "These are the two best teams, and to be honest with you, I don't think there's another team out there that's capable of beating Alabama," Clemson head coach Dabo Swinney said Saturday. The championship is a rematch of last year's nail-biter, in which Clemson fell to Alabama 45-40 after an undefeated 2015 season. A victory would give Alabama five national championships in eight seasons, a feat never completed at the highest level of the sport during the poll era.
