With the Alabama Crimson Tide overcoming a 17-point deficit on the road to defeat the Oklahoma Sooners 34-24, we now know what team the Indiana Hoosiers will be playing in the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day. The top-seeded Hoosiers were going to face the winner of the No. 8 vs. No. 9 game. While IU may have preferred to draw the limited offense from OU, instead, they are getting Alabama next up.
