Today there is no NFL game. Instead, it is the final college football game of the year, determining this year’s national champion. In the first year of the 12-team College Football Playoffs, the No. 6 seed Ohio State Buckeyes face the No. 5 seed Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
Ohio State is seeking its first championship since 2014. Notre Dame hasn’t won one since 1988.
If the Buckeyes win, it would be two consecutive Big Ten teams winning it all, as Michigan won it last year.
Two teams with a huge fan bases get to see who wins it all.
I bet you will be watching.
