College Football Playoff Rose Bowl game thread: Indiana vs Alabama

6 days ago 2

No. 1-seed Indiana football is set to take on No. 9-seed Alabama this afternoon in the 2026 Rose Bowl Game, which doubles as a College Football Playoff Quarterfinal, at the Rose Bowl Stadium in Pasadena, California.

We’ve said this quite a bit as of late, but this is in all likelihood the biggest game in program history for the Hoosiers. A win here would give them a chance to take on the winner of the Orange Bowl between No. 5-seed Oregon and No. 4-seed Texas Tech.

Indiana enters at 13-0 with a win over Ohio State in the Big Ten Football Championship game. Alabama enters at 11-3 and advanced after beating No. 8-seed Oklahoma on the road in the first round.
