Super Bowl Domination

Chapter 138 Peak Showdown
Attention, hot discussion, focus——

Normally, the final battle for the annual NCAA national championship is an absolute favorite, with an average viewership of 50 million or more; this year the popularity has skyrocketed because of the two opposing teams.

The University of Alabama and Clemson University will meet in the finals for the second consecutive year, and the final battle will be held at the Forbidden City. New and old grudges are about to be staged again.

and.

The two teams ranked first and second respectively in this season's NCAA rankings, and both showed amazing form in the semifinals, defeating their opponents in a crushing manner, once again defending their reputation and status as the strongest team of the season.

There is no doubt that this is the peak showdown.

No one wants to miss out, and no one should miss out.

So, who will reach the top?

To be honest, the Alabama Crimson Tide has indeed demonstrated absolute dominance, remaining undefeated so far this season. Their stable and strong performances are very convincing. At the same time, they have shown top levels on both offense and defense, and are considered by many to be the most perfect class under Shaban.

So, is the University of Alabama perfect?
No, of course not.

Careful fans will find that the only shortcoming of the University of Alabama this season is that they have never faced a truly top quarterback.

There is no Jackson, no Watson, no Mayfield, etc. Although the University of Alabama has played against some traditional offensive powerhouses, they have never had a head-on collision with a strong passing team, and the defense led by Allen has not faced the severe test of a strong quarterback.

until now.

Regardless of whether people like Watson or not or whether they agree with what Watson said, the fact is that Watson is indeed the most severe and difficult ultimate challenge for the University of Alabama this season.

If you were to pick a team that has the best chance of beating the University of Alabama from all the college teams this season, the Clemson Tigers led by Watson would undoubtedly be the best choice, even more suitable than Jackson's Louisville Cardinals.

Last year, the Clemson Tigers came close to doing it, just a little bit.

This year, the fully upgraded and fully grown Clemson Tigers will once again challenge to stop the Alabama Red Tide.

We can see some clues from the Peach Bowl and Festive Bowl games.

Indeed, Alabama performed well, but they still exposed some loopholes; while Clemson performed perfectly, showing high morale and positive state. They put themselves in a position to challenge the championship, which will also become an important variable in this year's NCAA peak showdown.

In contrast, Shaban is also aware of the enormous pressure Alabama is under, and issued a ban early on, prohibiting all forms of media interviews. This shows from the side that Shaban lacks confidence in the mental stability of this group of young players in the face of pressure, and hopes that they can stay focused as much as possible.

With the in and out movement, the positions of the two teams changed subtly.

After all, in a duel between masters, mentality and state are the key to on-the-spot performance.

Maybe the Clemson Tigers can really break the Alabama Crimson Tide's undefeated streak?
Because of this, the predictions of professionals before the game were slightly off track, and the view that the Clemson Tigers would defeat the Alabama Crimson Tide and reach the top slightly prevailed.

The Las Vegas odds say the same thing.

Of course, the opinions are not one-sided, and the supporters of the two teams are almost the same; and whether they support the Alabama Red Tide or the Clemson Tigers, they have at least reached a consensus:
The game should be very tense, and the final victory or defeat should be within a touchdown. The difference between heaven and hell may be determined by a moment, a mistake or a decision. Everything changes in a flash.

However, before the final battle of the National Championship Game, there are a series of games that will be staged one after another, including the Cotton Bowl, Sugar Bowl, Rose Bowl, etc. From December 31st to January 6th, bowl games of different levels will make their debut, bringing the season to a perfect end.

Then, the final battle finally took place—

On January 9, the Richmond-James Stadium, home of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Florida, welcomed the two teams in the final showdown of college football, and the stadium was packed.

Just a week ago, the last round of the NFL regular season was held here, and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defeated their division rivals, the Carolina Panthers. Unfortunately, this victory did not help the Tampa Bay Buccaneers advance to the playoffs, and the seasons of both teams came to an end. In a blink of an eye, this venue is about to stage the last match of the NCAA season, and fans from all corners of the North American continent will flock here to celebrate the ultimate event of college football.

The treatment is no less than that of the Super Bowl.

The air is burning.

Not only the fans and players, but also the coaching staff of both teams were excited.

Shaban and Sweeney, Sweeney and Shaban, their eyes met in the air.

At this moment, standing in Richmond James Stadium and looking back at the warm-up games of the spring training camp in April this year, we have to say that the foresight and calculations of the two coaches finally came true. Their preparations and strategies all came true. The two teams finally came to Tampa Bay to compete for the final championship.

Sweeney, the young head coach of the Clemson Tigers, took a deep breath, clenched his fist secretly, and regained his composure.

He did not forget that warm-up match. To be more precise, he kept watching the video of that match to remind himself not to forget the shame.

In that game, they not only lost the game, but also gave up a 21-point lead. Even with all the main players out in the fourth quarter, it was of no avail.

He has been waiting for a chance for revenge and a chance to defeat Shaban in a formal match. Watson's thoughts are also in his mind:

He hoped Alabama wouldn't lose. If anyone could beat them, it would have to be Clemson, and he prayed for that day and night.

Now, the wish has finally come true.

He won't let the nightmare happen again, he will beat his opponents, and in a convincing way, and they have been preparing for this day all season.

Keep your head up. Keep your chest out.

Sweeney secretly clenched his fists, and a bright light of faith burst out from his eyes.

At eight o'clock in the evening, the referee blew the whistle and announced the start of the game.

In the coin tossing session, the Clemson Tigers, who accurately guessed the head, chose the venue without hesitation, giving the opportunity to attack first in the first half to the Alabama Crimson Tide, which also meant that Watson of the Clemson Tigers would start the attack in the second half.

The game has begun.

Make public!

fierce!
turbulent!

The atmosphere at the Richmond James Arena was filled with incredible energy. The final battle of the U.S. Championship Game was a decisive battle. The entire atmosphere and feeling were completely different. You could feel the tension and anxiety of the final before you even stepped on the court.

Then, amid the deafening cheers and roars of opposition from the entire stadium, Hurts led the offensive team onto the field.

Levi was among them, looking up at the audience stands. The splendor and turmoil made the burning sound of his heart hitting his eardrums echo loudly, and he knew he was ready.

The decisive battle, the horn sounds.
