Following Monday’s night Rose Bowl, Michigan football crushed the aspirations and goals of the Alabama Crimson Tide to win the national championship. They then went on to further inflict pain on their SEC rival by engaging in some amusing trolling in the locker room.
In case you were wondering what the heck was going on, the Michigan football players were just lip-reading the audio that comedian Druski had recorded. The Michigan Wolverines defeated Alabama in the College Football Playoff semifinals, and no matter how much you dislike what Roman Wilson and company did there, you can’t stop them from celebrating. This is especially true given how well they played in Pasadena.
With just over a minute remaining in the fourth quarter, Alabama held a seven-point lead and it appeared as though the Wolverines would lose. But with a touchdown and a clutch stop, JJ McCarthy and the Michigan football team proved what they were made of, tying the score and forcing overtime. In overtime, the Wolverines scored a touchdown and stopped the Crimson Tide from responding with a touchdown on the opposite side of the field, capping their thrilling victory with a 27-20 victory.
The Wolverines still have work to do. To secure their spot in the biggest game of the season, they must defeat the formidable Washington Huskies on January 8 in Houston, Texas, in the College Football Playoff National Championship Game. If they want a bigger celebration in the locker room, they must win this game. The Huskies defeated the Texas Longhorns at the Sugar Bowl on Monday.
