Cotton Bowl: Alabama Crimson Tide vs. Cincinnati Bearcats | Full Game Highlights 

Bearcats had some decent defensive stops , but their offense was in no man's land facing those future 1st rounders on Bama's Defense; Brain Robinson was like a man amongst boys out there.

That defensive line for bama is just amazing. Looked like a JV offensive line out there for cinci

The SEC could have several teams go undefeated in Cincinnati Conference.

Alabama defense has improved a lot the last half of the season ‼️

Alabama defense was just outstanding. Cincy worn down by the run game.

This game reminded me of when Bama teams from a few years ago would play teams like Georgia state. Run the ball, chew clock, let the defense handle things, win about 30-0 and move on to the next one.

Congrats crimson tide. So very good, Cincy Bearcats need to schedule tough teams in the next couple years they will be moving to the big 12. Good season congrats Bearcats

Cincinnati played their hearts out. Them guys could have gave up n lost by 40 but they gave it all they had

AAC Fans: We have a better record. SEC Fans: We have Alabama.

Congrats Cincinnati on making it to the cfp. Hopefully you guys will make it again this season. No reason to hang your heads. You played a better team. Pick up the pieces and move forward. Take the loss as a lesson. God bless you guys and good luck this upcoming season.

Brian Robinson is a monster

Only touchdown Cincy had was their plane at the airport.

I’m honestly impressed how well Cincinnati played against Bama. I expected Bama to score at least 40-50 points but were held to 27 even though they had so many big plays on offense. Cincinnatis special teams are something special but Desmond Ridder and that offensive line just could not get anything together. If Cincinnati had some better recruits on offense maybe they make this a closer game. Congrats to the Tide for going to yet another national championship and congrats to Cincinnati for making the playoffs.

Congratulations to Cincinnati on their two field goals.

Never in my life would I ever imagine UC would be in the CFP. That season was like walking through a dream. Best season and team UC has ever had.

Real America Football at its best. Thank You for the joy and fun.

I feel like this was the playoff commission's way of saying "yall been cryin for 2 years that you deserve to be in, well, here's why you shouldn't" The talent level difference between the 2 conferences is staggering.

Thanks for the coverage of the game. Happy 2022 Roll Tide

Very similar results to the 2016 peach bowl against Washington. Like Bo Scarbrough.....looks like Robinson did most of the work.

That sack by Anderson at 5:10 was just too damm good. Pure hustle. Maximum Effort. Definition of don’t stop till you hear the whistle.

Props to Cincinnati but they were doomed from the start. Alabama is basically an NFL team, they’re just a different breed come bowl season. I don’t wanna see ppl saying the Bearcats didn’t belong cause many power 5 “contenders” get blown out by Bama during bowl season too

Whoever plays Alabama in the national championship game will have their hands full on January 10th, whether it’s Michigan or Georgia

Hats off to Crimson Tide. Cincinnati got its first lost ever this Season, & it had to happen on the cotton bowl. Oh boy that must hurt!

Nobody can Deal with the SEC's defenses, especially Alabama. They played a team who averaged almost 40 points a game throughout the year and made them look like a peewee football team. They spent almost the entire game in Cincinnati's backfield. They never had a chance. Georgia will destroy Michigan later and it'll be an all SEC title game again.

Cincinnati corners dbs all I been hearing but hey great game enjoy that interception that was our new year gift

Cincinatti has an awesome special teams unit and secondary. Mad respect to them for making it in. That said, bama has turned it on back half of this season, hoping to see them play michigan!

ROLL TIDE ROLL!!! 27-6

“We want Bama. We want Bama!” Welp, you got ‘em! 😆

Where all the clowns that picked Cincinnati and where are room temperature iq people who actually bet against Alabama in this game 😂

Will Anderson has the greatest get off I've ever seen. It looks like he knows every snap count. A few times I swore he was offsides

Remember that famous Gameday picture of the Cincy fans poster? The one that eluded to the undefeated Cincy record vs the other top teams with 1 loss? Well, welcome to the 1 loss club. Roll Tide.

It was a huge mistake for Cincinnati to defer from the coin toss. Alabama had that immediate momentum and advantage from scoring on the first possession.

Bama dominated. We ran the ball so effectively and drained the clock; hence only 27 points. Game was never in doubt

Go ahead and ring size Alabama for consecutive championships back to back

I hope that all of you out there searching for meaningful things receive them this new year! Happy New Year 💙

Cincinnati total yards was 176, Brian Robinson had 204, all I need to say 🥶

Did anyone think Cincy had a chance? I saw them play live, and I knew they were outclassed.

Respectfully cincy wasn’t ready and everybody knew it including them deep down 😂

I graduated from UC. We were clearly outgunned. Flashback of when we played Florida. Still proud of my team!

Bama defense was STIFLING! Offense did their job, and another win for Bama against a quality team. Cincinnati was for real this year. Look out for them next year!

The portal is only going to insure Alabama continues to win national championships as all the best players will migrate to 1 or 2 teams!

Oh my.. the alabama defence rushing the qb like a tsunami

We ALL knew this was gonna happen

Young has a surprisingly strong arm for such a small frame

Great Season for the Bearcats - Bama D was just too much today

Alabama really seems to have fixed some of the defensive problems. They are getting more pressure on the QB, and their tackling seems much better. Robinson and Williams will be in the NFL. Williams is super scary good.

If we being honest cincinnati got dominated

I'm not surprised at all ROLL TIDE!

Bama fan here. Cincy is a team of warriors. They belong. A few key recruits to fill a couple holes and we could be dealing with these guys again.

Thanks coach Saban! Roll Tide!

Whenever my mood is down, I just watch this video. Feels so good to see these bearcats crushed

Cincy was overwhelmed and Alabama was too much for them.

Nick Saban Is The GOAT Frfr💯The Offense Did Good But That Defense Stepped Up Especially WHEN IT MATTERS MOST….I Hope They Win Back To Back Championship

Can we all agree when he uploads our day gets better 💥

This was the most mailed in Bama game I've seen in the Saban era. Clearly saving some surprises for Georgia.

Hey at least they can say they fought hard and didn’t get slaughtered by the elite Crimson Tide! Most teams can’t say that! My hats off to them for a great year. Now my Tide can sharpen their tusk and get ready for war!!

Nice scrimmage game for Alabama.

Strength of Schedule should mean something, Notre dame deserved to be in this game more then CINCY. Could you imagine if a big name like Nebraska went to this conference, they would be undefeated every year.

3:30 that was footballs version of a no look pass. Awesome stuff

CinciNoNatty. B Rob beast mode. Love 5th year loyalty. ROLL TIDE!!!

For all the people who thought Cincy would beat Bama..come on out of hiding. We know you didn't know any better lol. Roll Tide 🐘

People from Alabama are all related that’s why they have such a good team

I have to give Alabama credit. They just know how to win. No question, no excuses. THEY JUST KNOW HOW TO WIN!!!!

Cincy held their own for most of the game. I just think that there a clear talent gap between power 5 teams and group of 5 teams

BAMA welcomed Cincy to the Alabama Invitational. BAMA by 21 of course. Easy win as usual. BAMA D owned the game. BAMA running game was over the top. Nothing else was needed. Roll Tide Roll and thanks to Cincy for coming to the Alabama Invitational.

When our defense plays like this combined with a running BAMA is hard to beat...ROLL TIDE

SEC just dominates. I kinda miss the old early 2000s when the big 12 with Texas and Oklahoma was actually relevant..the big 10 is now second best but they still ain't touching the SEC. Where is the competition??? It's all in the SEC. Them boys in the south eating good or something. Just different

Well by the looks of it, it seems that we are going to have another SEC title game. 🤦🏾

When you got bama version of von millers and khalil macks attacking you all night it hard to compete, if they could manage to score this game would been lot more interesting because they had chances it wasn't like they just got destroyed but unfortunately, line play always matter and Cindy couldn't deal with Bama front 4 attack seem like cincy qb got swarm on all important passing downs.

Alabama is headed back to the Super Bowl!!

Great job Bryce Young💪 for making the ultimate sacrifice with your playmaking ability. Guy stayed aware, kept himself poised, and constantly found ways of finding teammates🏈 in receiving core for huge passing yards that lead to touchdowns. I know this game for Bearcats hurts more than anything but season Coach🙏 Fickell had was a true success. Only reason why struggled Cincinnati is because we didn't protect Ridder like we should of. His plays were so good at times that I felt like jumping out of my seat. Defense with Cook, Pace, along with Sauce Gardner is no joke to mess with. And way to go Beavers😉 because guys like you, we were able to get those strong running backs of Alabama completely on the ground. Fun getting to notice a sack or two by our C' Cat defense also. Coach Saban 🤗and crew terrific job. Watching these highlights kept things going all throughout the competition. When stakes became high, this Crimson Tide football program delivered. I just feel bad I couldn't see this game live on ESPN TV. Offensive🤔 line of Bearcats just couldn't seem to do anything right. Either way though I'm proud to be a real Bearcats type of dude. Desmond Ridder will have the pro game of Marcus Mariota Titans , Deshaun Watson Texans, and maybe Patrick Mahomes from Kansas City Chiefs. Keep it up Desmond because I believe in you 100 % percent on and off football field. Breaking records⭐👏👍 for Cincinnati quite a accomplishment but also in a team way. Run things back for next squad 2022 2023 And Alec Pierce Jerome Ford I'll be rooting for you guys at the highest professional level. Very confident👊🎉🙂 you will make a NFL franchise super happy no matter how the draft shakes up in soon to be future. 🐻🐾

People talk about expanding the playoff, but this year four was just too many. Clearly, based on tonight, there were only two teams good enough to matter.

Honestly the only thing Cincy had going for them was defense.

Will Anderson Jr is an absolute monster. This guy should be drafted super high. Williams is a beast too.

When I grow up, I want to be just like Alabamaman 😄

That Cincy QB was all over the place pressure got to him.

Cincy/Michigan really thought they had a chance. You can’t compete where you can’t compare. SEC strong.

Curtis Brooks, Cincinnati's #92 was consistently doublt teamed, and by some BIG dudes! Brooks is gonna shine, year 1, for the Colts!!!

Darn it! I missed this game. It sure looked like a good one.

I guess standing on the field last year was motivation to stand on the field watching another team celebrate this year!

Game plan. Give Cincinnati less times to have offense on field. Run football wear Defense line of Cincinnati. Exploit the offensive line with you studs on front 7 Alabama doesn't care about score, because 3-0 is a win. Each week is always different.

Nick Saban is not only the greatest College football Coach of all times and it's not even close anymore, with another Championship he would be in the conversation for greatest Coach ever in any sport

Cincinati didn’t embarrass itself in this game, we knew Alabama had control, but Cinci looked like they belonged

Everyone new Cincinnati didn’t have enough offense coming into this game. But can we talk about Sauce??? 🔒

Bama saw a weakness in the Cinci left side for the run game. They exploited that all game.

Brian Robinson: "How many times would you like me to run the ball tonight, Coach?" Nick Saban: "Yes."

Three man front by Cinn was the open invitation to ground and pound. Roll Tide Roll….that’s a Saban win #36 when facing a coach for the first time…

This was interesting and fun, and I'm glad a Group of 5 team finally got a shot. But going forward, can we keep this real please? Give the G5 their own tournament.

Tides still rising, roll Tide roll.

I love you Bearcats.

Alabama defense has improved a lot the last half of the season

You know it’s gonna be a long day for Cincinnati when their TE is getting dumped on his head by a Bama Corner 😭💀

It fucks me up to see Alabama produce year after year😂😂😂😭🐐‼️

Prior to yesterday the mighty SEC was getting flat out stomped and embarrassed in Bowl games. I think this had an effect on Bama and Georgia because no conference plays with as much pride as the SEC. UC's defense played a very good game and has absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. Their offense though, looked hopelessly out of their league.

I am an Arkansas Razorback fan, and next season we open with playing Cincinnati. I am not looking forward to it. Not at all. But it's no surprise. Arkansas always gets hammered with a ridiculously hard schedule.

Cincinnati’s secondary is very impressive. They showed they belonged on the field tonight. Everybody else, not so much.

All that hype for Cincinnati to finally be in the CFP and only get 2 field goals...

Bama should win every game every year with 95% 5 star players and the best coach ever to do it. Also the best assistant coaches. Let’s be real people.

We miss you JOHN METCHIE !!! Perfect example of why we do not need an 8 Team Playoff.

Congratulations!!! Roll Tide!!!
