Till the end of the game, one could not have possibly predicted the outcome of this nail-biting bowl game. Both Alabama and Michigan put up a decent fight, but the latter emerged as the better team and prevailed in the end.
Their QB JJ McCarthy had a better game than Jalen Milroe and went on to record 221 passing yards and three passing touchdowns. On the other hand, Milroe struggled throughout the night as his offensive line failed to protect him properly on the field. He was sacked a total of six times, with five of them coming in the first half itself, and ended the night with 116 passing yards no TD passes.
In the end, Blake Corum emerged as the hero for the Wolverines in OT. He recorded a 17-yard TD run in overtime which turned the tide in favor of Michigan with the final score reading 27-20. Can Harbaugh continue this momentum in the finals?
