This is the fourth College Football Playoff Championship. Alabama has gone to the playoffs all four years. This is also Alabama’s third straight appearance in the National Championship. Alabama will play Georgia in the first meeting of two teams from the same conference in the CFP National Championship. Also, Jalen Hurts, Alabama’s quarterback, was a true freshman last season when he played Clemson in the Championship.
