Watch Fiesta Bowl Live From Here
No. 2 Michigan hasn’t played a National Championship game since 1997. Here, the Wolverines are one win away from their biggest game in decades.
The Michigan Wolverines are the undefeated Big Ten champions with their 13-0 record. Their furious running game remains the heartbeat of the offense. Quarterback J.J. McCarthy will be the key player.
McCarthy will be up against the Heisman Trophy runner-up Max Duggan. The TCU Horned Frogs quarterback Duggan has been amazing this year, with his passing and rushing strength.
No. 3 TCU Horned Frogs bolster their squad with two more NFL prospects, running back Kendre Miller and wide receiver Quentin Johnston. TCU went 12-1. They lost the Big 12 Championship against Kansas State by 31-28 in overtime.
TCU never played a National title game. Can the head coach Sonny Dykes do it in his first year at TCU?

TCU vs Michigan Prediction
No. 2 Michigan reached the National Championship semi-finals for the second time in history. On the other hand, no. 3 TCU are first-timers.
Michigan Wolverines went undefeated to be the Big Ten champions. They held Ohio State twice. The Wolverines are the only side in the playoff who are ranking in the top 10 nationally in both offense and defense. They scored 40.1 points per game on average while on defense holding opponents to just 13.4 points each time out.
On the other hand, the Heisman Trophy runner-up Max Duggan led TCU to the Fiesta Bowl. They posted 470 yards per game during the regular season. However, they lost the Big 12 Championship game against Kansas State.
It will be a hard fight. We predict Michigan will seal the game by 36-31.
