When Alabama and Oklahoma take the field on Dec. 29 in Miami for the College Football Playoff semifinal at the Orange Bowl, the sparks are sure to fly.
With Heisman winner Kyler Murray leading the Sooners against runner-up Tua Tagovailoa and the Crimson Tide, there are sure to be plenty of points put up on the scoreboard.
On Friday, ESPN expert Mark Schlabach made his picks for the game, and as you can see below, he thinks Alabama will win by two scores:
- Alabama 54, Oklahoma 38
Alabama’s defense is unlike anything Oklahoma has faced this year, but Murray presents a set of challenges Alabama’s defense hasn’t faced so far in 2018.
Whatever happens on the field on Dec. 29, the Orange Bowl is sure to be a great game.
