The Bearcats will play Alabama in the Cotton Bowl and Michigan will face Georgia in the Orange Bowl on New Year’s Eve after being selected to the College Football Playoff as a historic field of four was set Sunday. The winners will play for the national championship on Jan. 10 in Indianapolis.

“All year we’ve tried to avoid saying we’re carrying the flag ,” Cincinnati coach coach Luke Fickell said on ESPN. “I think you can get lost in a lot things that are going on.” Baylor made the goal-line stand to win the Big 12 and, after Cincinnati took care of Houston in the AAC title game, the Bearcats were in the clear.

Alabama seemed to a loss away from being eliminated from playoff contention heading into its game with Georgia. Instead, Bryce Young and the Tide lit up the Bulldogs’ vaunted defense to earn the top seed. Nick Saban’s Alabama dynasty has won three playoff championships to go along with three BCS titles since 2009.
