Michigan won the game in overtime
University of Michigan players used a social media influencer’s Alabama skit to troll the Crimson Tide following their Rose Bowl win to advance to the College Football Playoff National Championship on Monday.
Druski put together a viral video during the college football season, when he tailed a rambunctious Alabama fan with one of the most memorable lines being, "I don’t give a piss about nothing but the Tide, baby!"

"If ever a game was going to be won up front, it was going to be won with toughness and physicality," Harbaugh said. "Our guys were just there in rhythm and got it done. Epic game. Epic game. The stick-togetherness — I guess what people don’t know, how could they know, what the togetherness is like? There’s just nothing that can separate these guys."
