This game looked OVER early! But then it wasnâtâŚbut then it was! It was a lot, weâll give you the skinny of it right now!
This Ryan Day-led Ohio State team has finally gotten over the hump! With their 34-23 win over Notre Dame last night in the National Championship, they are now the top dawgs in college football!
After a long, sustained drive to start the game by Notre Dame, which ended with a Riley Leonard scamper for a TD, it looked like we could be in for a dogfight! Unfortunately for the Irish, it was anything but for the next 3 quarters. Notre Dame scored 31 unanswered points, 3 of those TDs coming from RB Quinshon Judkins! It was 31-7 and the game looked over.
If youâve watched this Irish team though, it wasnât surprising to see some fight. They waited to use all of their magic until late in the third quarter. Riley Leonard threw 2 30 yard TDs to Jaden Greathouse, with 2 SUCCESSFUL 2-point conversions, and suddenly, it was an 8-point game. Notre Dameâs defense had to make a stand late into the fourth quarter, and they couldnât. Will Howard threw a GUTSY bomb to Jeremiah Smith on 3rd & 11 with 3 minutes to go in the game, and that was all she wrote!
Hereâs a conversation that Iâm sure will be floating around today. The biggest fan in the world of the 12-team playoff has to be Ohio State Head Coach Ryan Day. Not only would Ohio State not have made the Playoff last year, but there is a strong chance that he could have gotten fired at the end of their regular season after a brutal loss to Michigan! The only way for redemption was winning a National Championship, and that is exactly what his team did!
The Buckeyes are now the King of the Jungle, and the countdown for the 2025 CFB Season begins!
