Miami-Ohio State, Alabama-Indiana, and Oregon-Texas Tech given grim prediction

The College Football Playoff's first round came and went, and according to some, there wasn't much entertainment value to be had throughout the first four games of the 12-team field setup's second go-round.

While the Alabama Crimson Tide and Oklahoma Sooners were tied at halftime, the Tide turned in the second half and, before long, Bama had a two-score lead over OU in the 34-24 win at Gaylord Memorial.

Some found beauty in the Miami Hurricanes' 10-3 triumph over the TAMU Aggies to decide the Ohio State Buckeyes' Cotton Bowl Classic opponent, but it was objectively an ugly game from the offense and special teams standpoints.
