The first round of the College Football Playoff will see two powerhouses collide when Alabama faces Oklahoma.
Oklahoma holds the all-time record against Alabama, 5-2-1, beating the Crimson Tide in early November. In playoff action, Alabama beat the Sooners in 2018 to reach the national championship game.
After winning the Iron Bowl, Alabama lost the SEC championship game against Georgia. Kalen DeBoer’s team looks to rebound with its first national championship since 2020. QB Ty Simpson is a true force, while Germie Bernard is a reliable target.
Oklahoma beat LSU to end the regular season. Isaiah Sategna III is one of John Mateer's top targets. Meanwhile, Mateer is a rushing threat along with Tory Blaylock and Xavier Robinson.
