Two undefeated teams — No. 1 Michigan and No. 2 Washington — are set to meet for a chance at eternal glory at the College Football Playoff National Championship game on Monday night.
The Wolverines earned their first CFP victory in program history with a 27-20 comeback win over No. 4 Alabama in overtime at the Rose Bowl. Quarterback J.J. McCarthy engineered a game-tying touchdown drive in the final minutes of regulation, running back Blake Corum found the endzone in overtime and a suffocating Michigan defense secured the game-sealing fourth down stop.

The Huskies showcased their high-octane, air-raid offense in a 37-31 victory over No. 3 Texas at the Sugar Bowl. Star quarterback Michael Penix Jr. threw for a whopping 430 yards while Washington’s defense shut down the Longhorns’ last stand to punch the Huskies’ ticket to Houston.
Both teams have silenced critics on their road to the doorstep of history. Michigan proved its might in spite of a sign-stealing scandal that threatened to derail its season; in the semifinals, the Wolverines exorcised their playoff demons. Washington relied on its grit and fortitude to win an avalanche of close games, and then handled Oregon and Texas despite being written off as an underdog ad nauseum.
