Well Michigan fans, we hope you want Bama. Because if the post-conference championship games bowl prognostications are any indication, that looks like that’s who the Wolverines are set to get.
With the final four all but set, save for the order — LSU, Ohio State, Clemson and Oklahoma are likely to all be in the playoff — the next set, the New Year’s Six, are next up. Michigan won’t qualify for any of those, with three losses, so the maize and blue are set to be in the next tier. As it so happens, with two losses, that looks to be the same case for Alabama, as the Crimson Tide are behind LSU, Georgia, Auburn and Florida in the pecking order.
Thus, every bowl prediction looks like this:
Pete Fiutak – College Football News: Citrus Bowl vs. Alabama
Jerry Palm – CBS Sports: Citrus Bowl vs. Alabama
Kyle Bonagura and Mark Schlabach – ESPN: Citrus Bowl vs. Alabama
Brad Crawford – 247Sports: Citrus Bowl vs. Alabama
Brett McMurphy – Stadium: Citrus Bowl vs. Alabama
So, what do you think, Michigan fans? Do you truly want Bama? Because it looks like you’re about to get it.
