ESPN unveiled its broadcast team for both matchups. Chris Fowler and Kirk Herbstreit are doing the Rose Bowl while Greg McElroy and Sean McDonough have the Sugar Bowl. Alabama faced Michigan in the 2019 Citrus Bowl, and the Crimson Tide emerged with a 35-16 victory. It is the second time Nick Saban has matched up against Jim Harbaugh in a marquee contest.
