Big programs and big names collide with Nick Saban and Jim Harbaugh on opposite sidelines for the Rose Bowl, and new users can redeem a FanDuel promo code to get a $150 bonus with a winning $5 wager on the College Football Playoff semifinal.

Michigan (13-0) fought through cheating allegations and multiple suspensions of Harbaugh to finish the college football regular season undefeated and earn the No. 1 seed in the College Football Playoff.

Now, the Wolverines face Saban and his SEC champion Alabama team, which defeated defending champion Georgia.

The stubborn coaches and storied programs will meet in the Rose Bowl on New Year’s Day in one of the most intriguing matchups in recent memory. And you can add even more excitement to the big bowl game - which is often called “The Granddaddy of them All” - by activating the promo code from FanDuel.

Both teams are entering the Rose Bowl following some big wins to end the regular season.

Michigan beat its arch-rival Ohio State and then suffocated a sluggish Iowa offense to capture the Big Ten championship.

Alabama’s journey was even more incredible as the Crimson Tide needed a fourth-quarter touchdown pass on 4th-and-31 to defeat Auburn 27-24. Alabama then knocked off unbeaten Georgia to capture the SEC crown.

It all sets up a New Year’s Day showdown for two teams with similar styles. Michigan ranks first in the country in average points allowed per game, only giving up 9.5 per contest. The Wolverines also rank second in yards allowed per game (239.7).

Alabama’s defense ranks second in the SEC (18.4 points per game). The Crimson Tide complement that unit with a running game built around Jase McLellan (803 yards, six touchdowns) and dual-threat quarterback Jalen Millroe (468 yards, 12 touchdowns). Michigan also has a solid ground game led by running back Blake Corum (1,028 rushing yards, 24 touchdowns).

In some ways, it’s a matchup of mirror images, so perhaps it’s no surprise that oddsmakers expect a close game. FanDuel has Michigan as a 1.5-point favorite in the Rose Bowl with a moneyline of -128. Alabama is priced at +106. The game’s over/under is set at 44.5.

Kickoff is scheduled for 4 p.m. CT on New Year’s Day live on ESPN.

FanDuel also has same-game parlay options, as well as betting lines available on all of the college bowl games to give its players plenty of choices.

New users can sign up at the sportsbook with the promotion that delivers a $150 bonus with a winning moneyline wager of $5 or more. Current players can also cash in with a number of other incentives from FanDuel. Those offers include:

  • Odds boosts: Earn enhanced odds and increased payouts on select markets.
  • Free Games: Enjoy free-to-play contests with real cash prizes.
  • Referral bonus: Invite friends to sign up at FanDuel, and you’ll both receive $50 in bonus bets and $25 in casino credit when they create a qualifying account.
