    Alabama blanks Michigan State to reach CFP title game

    The loss still stung. It burned Alabama so badly to be beaten in the College Football Playoff semifinals last season that the Crimson Tide were determined to handle business differently this time around.

    The players said they were more focused and promised to be more prepared, more precise in their execution and more relentless in their effort.

    Nick Saban said he saw something in his team going into the College Football Playoff semifinal at the Goodyear Cotton Bowl Classic that he had never seen before. Michigan State claimed it was ready for a 15-round brawl, but the Tide knocked out the Spartans early on Thursday night like a nonconference cupcake.

    No. 2 Alabama 38, No. 3 Michigan State 0. It was the largest shutout in Cotton Bowl history.
