Alabama is still three wins away from a national championship, and stuck in a loaded quarterfinal with a matchup against No. 1 Indiana in the Rose Bowl.
It may not have been pretty the entire way, but the Alabama Crimson Tide are through to the College Football Playoff quarterfinals, and Kalen DeBoer is the first coach to ever win a CFP game with two different programs. A first-round victory doesn’t quite live up to the standard for a program that claims 18 national championships, but Alabama isn’t done yet.
