Alabama Crimson Tide vs. Ohio State Buckeyes, NCAAF Championship. Here is the end of the season, the most anticipated game in all of college football. But this edition is different, the coronavirus severely affected the results of many teams. But the Buckeyes with fewer than ten wins accomplished the unthinkable. Alabama is a favorite, the team played more games and showed that they are in good shape. The Buckeyes ‘weak point is Justin Fields’ injury.
