Jalen Milroe and Alabama are looking to get past Michigan in Monday’s College Football Playoff semifinal at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena.
If it seems as if it’s been a while since the “Granddaddy Of Them All” has hosted a CFP semifinal, that’s because it has: the last time was in 2018. Fast forward to Monday, though, and the Crimson Tide and Wolverines are looking to punch their respective tickets to next Monday’s championship game in Houston.
Milroe, surrounded by his teammates, looked to motivate the team ahead of kickoff.
“They said they want it? Guess what? We’re gonna give it to their a–,” Milroe said. “Relentless [expletive] effort. Fast, free, and fearless.”
Alabama, of course, is looking for its 1st national championship since the 2020 season and its 7th under Nick Saban. Michigan hasn’t won a title since 1997 and is looking to avoid a 3rd consecutive CFP semifinal loss.
Alabama-Michigan is on ESPN, with MegaCast coverage available across the company’s family of networks.
