The highly anticipated College Football Playoff Championship Game is here, featuring two of the sport’s most iconic programs: No. 7 Notre Dame and No. 8 Ohio State. As these two teams take to the field on Monday night, they not only compete for the coveted national championship title but also for the chance to end long championship droughts.
For Notre Dame, a win would mark their first national championship since 1988, ending a 36-year title-less streak. It would also give them a tie with Michigan for the second-most claimed national championships in college football history.
Ohio State, on the other hand, is aiming for its ninth national title and its first since 2014—the inaugural year of the College Football Playoff. The Buckeyes have gone 10 years without a championship and will look to end their own drought with a victory on Monday.
Both teams have rich histories and passionate fanbases, making this matchup a thrilling contest for college football fans across the country. Who will emerge victorious and etch their name into the history books? Only time will tell.
The Game will be Monday, January 20th, 7:30 pm on ESPN
