College Football Playoff Predictions

With the CFP now set, I'm going to take a look at the matchups and give some bold predictions on winners, as well as a National Champion.

Capital One Orange Bowl: #1 Alabama vs. #4 Oklahoma


Buckle your seatbelt - bold prediction incoming. I'm somewhat biased in this in the fact that I have watched the Sooners play all season long, but at the same time because of that I feel as if I know this team from front to back. There's no questioning Alabama and its dominance this season, but in a serious matchup with the Sooners - it would be hard for me to imagine Bama scoring more points than Oklahoma. The Sooners by far have the most talented offense in the country. Yes, their defense has been sub-par basically all season long. In the past few weeks however they have come up with some huge defensive plays, and I really believe this defense has heard enough of the criticism and are ready to show-out. I predict this to be a close one, but I believe OU's offense outscores Bama by a slim margin - which they have plenty of experience with this year.


Goodyear Cotton Bowl: #2 Clemson vs. #3 Notre Dame


Not looking for an upset here. I expect Clemson to win this game, close or not. I do think that the Irish have more chops than everyone has wanted to give them credit for, but Clemson is just more CFP ready. Clemson for the W.


CFP Championship Prediction: #4 Oklahoma over #2 Clemson


I'm going all the way with the Sooners on this. I can't really pick them for an upset over Bama and not follow through. Another close game as the Sooners defense tends to allow, but as stated before - Kyler Murray and OU's offense is no joke. This will be an excited CFP to say in the least, but I strongly feel an upset coming in the Orange Bowl and the Sooners winning another National Championship after a long drought.
