The 2018 Sugar Bowl Game could be considered a rubber game. That’s because, in each of the past two seasons, the Clemson Tigers and the Alabama Crimson Tide have met in the College Football Playoff with each team winning once.
Today’s game isn’t quite the rematch it could be. If they were facing off against each other in the championship game, it would obviously have a little more importance, but, at the same time, for either of these teams to get to the National Championship Game next Monday, they must win tonight’s game.
