Alabama-Michigan Rose Bowl channel, time, TV schedule, streaming info
Alabama football will play in its first Rose Bowl Game since 1946 against No. 1 Michigan on Monday, with eyes on an even greater prize: the College Football Playoff national championship game.
Quarterback Jalen Milroe will continue to be the Crimson Tide's deciding factor offensively: He has totaled 23 passing touchdowns to six interceptions while rushing for 12 more. He has kept the turnovers to a minimum since his Week 3 benching against South Florida, but has shown the propensity to take a shot for the big play when necessary.
Alabama's Dallas Turner and the Crimson Tide's defensive front seven must win the battle in the trenches by suffocating Michigan running back Blake Corum, the engine of the Wolverines' offense. Corum led all FBS running backs with 24 touchdowns and had his third 1,000-yard season this year.
The 2023 Rose Bowl meeting will be Alabama's sixth time facing off against Michigan in the program's history. The most recent matchup came during the 2020 Citrus Bowl, when Alabama took down Michigan in a 35-16 win — the only time Nick Saban and Jim Harbaugh have met as head coaches of their respective schools.
