A porcupine at Zoo Miami has made his selection on who will win the Orange Bowl matchup between No. 1 Alabama and No. 4 Oklahoma.
Pierce the porcupine was seen coming out of his crate and was given two bowls of food by a Crimson Tide helmet and a Sooners helmet.
He scurried over and made a surprising pick.

If Pierce’s pick is correct, it would be a massive upset. Alabama has won the College Football Playoff two of the past three seasons.
The Sooners already bested the Tide in the Heisman race, when Oklahoma quarterback Kyler Murray beat out Alabama quarterback Tua Tagovailoa Saturday night.
The Orange Bowl will be Dec. 29 in Miami. The winner of that game will face the winner of the Cotton Bowl on Jan. 7 in the title game.
