It’s official — Michigan football will be taking its talents to South Beach.
On Sunday, just hours after having beaten No. 13 Iowa to earn the program’s first Big Ten Championship since 2004, No. 2 Michigan remained in its slot to advance to the College Football Playoff. Now it will take on No. 3 Georgia on Dec. 31 in the Capital One Orange Bowl in Miami Gardens, Florida, with an opportunity to advance to the national championship game some 10 days later.
