Alabama vs. Ohio State: National Championship Game Mon Jan 11th

This college football season comes down to one game on Monday Night  in Miami Gardens, Florida. Hard Rock Stadium where No. 1 Alabama will take on No. 3 Ohio State in the College Football Playoff National Championship.

Las Vegas bookmakers opend this game with Alabama (-7) and O/U (76.5) and the line currently sits at Alabama (-8) with the total at (75).

It was reported earlier in the week that Ohio State was dealing with COVID-19 issues that could leave it too short-handed to play Monday.The Buckeyes had three games postponed this year due to COVID-19.

It’s easy to buy into storys on possible players missing this game due to covid-19 which is the real thing but didnt Ohio State have players missing due to the pandemic when they handed Clemson a lopsided loss?
