Alabama has won three CFP Championships since the inaugural season in 2015, more than any other team. While its inclusion in this year's playoffs was controversial, it proved why Alabama is always a top dog by defeating No. 8 Oklahoma on the road in the opening round.

This one is a game for the history books. And it takes place at the iconic Pasadena stadium.
