The University of Alabama football program rejoiced over the weekend.

Alabama earned a Southeastern Conference Championship victory over Georgia and made the College Football Playoff.

Nick Saban and the Crimson Tide will face Michigan in the Rose Bowl on New Year's Day. Alabama honored its student-athletes on Sunday at the Sheraton (Birmingham, Ala.) during its annual awards banquet.
