Kyler Murray vs. Tua Tagovailoa Is a Once-in-a-Lifetime QB Showcase

Before we go down this road, Tua Tagovailoa wants you to know he'll be completely healthy Saturday.
Relax, everyone. The ankle that may or may not heal in time isn't going to stop the greatest quarterback battle of our generation.
Forget about Baker Mayfield vs. Patrick Mahomes. Or Vince Young vs. Matt Leinart. Or Marcus Mariota vs. Jameis Winston.
Kyler Murray vs. Tua Tagovailoa in the College Football Playoff Orange Bowl semifinal beats them all.
"That ought to be fun to defend," TCU coach Gary Patterson, one of the game's brightest defensive minds, sarcastically says. The truth is, the defensive staffs at No. 1 Alabama and No. 4 Oklahoma, well, have mercy on their souls.

No complaints about predictability: Alabama-Clemson Part IV looks to make history

So you're sick and tired of watching Alabama play Clemson for the College Football Playoff National Championship, huh?
Do you really want to watch Notre Dame play the Crimson Tide?
Or Michigan square up with Clemson?
Yeah, didn't think so.
Instead of complaining about the sport's lack of parity and how it's becoming as predictable as the NBA or women's college basketball, ask yourself this: Why wouldn't you want to watch Alabama play Clemson again?
Their first two meetings in the CFP National Championship were two of the greatest college football games ever played; it's nearly impossible to decide which one was more memorable. And there's no reason to believe this season's edition at Levi's Stadium in Santa Clara, California, on Jan. 7 (8 p.m. ET on ESPN) won't be as electric.
Instead of grumbling about having to watch the No. 1 Crimson Tide play the No. 2 Tigers again, we should be embracing what they've accomplished during the CFP era and particularly this season. It has undoubtedly become the greatest rivalry in the sport -- they played in the CFP national semifinal last season, with Alabama advancing -- and it's probably not going to end anytime soon.
After watching Clemson demolish No. 3 Notre Dame 30-3 in a CFP semifinal at the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic on Saturday, then seeing Alabama take down No. 4 Oklahoma 45-34 in the other semifinal at the Capital One Orange Bowl, there's zero debate about which two teams should be playing for a national title.
