Ohio State dominated Notre Dame in the college football championship thanks to freshman Jeremiah Smith's ability to be open 24/7 like 7-Eleven, and several celebrities were in attendance to witness victory.
The first year of the College Football Playoff's new 12-team format ended with Ohio State atop the sport. As previously reported, Notre Dame's Marcus Freeman made history by becoming the first black head coach to play in the national championship game.
And while that accomplishment was celebrated, Freeman's Fighting Irish couldn't stop Ohio freshman Jeremiah Smith.
Ultimately, Notre Dame was overwhelmed by Smith and Ohio State players Quinshon Judkins and TreVeyon Henderson, who ran wild for a total of 170 yards.
As Marcus Freeman brought the team back into the game, one play, leaving Smith open, put the dagger in the hearts of the Irish.
That play spawned several Instagram skits before the game even ended, but in Freeman's defense, it was his first time under the brightest lights, unlike coach Ryan Day and Ohio State, who sniffed the championship game or semifinals each year. the 2020s.
With stars like LeBron James, Stephen A. Smith and Anthony Mackie watching and Coco Jones singing the national anthem, Ohio State took home the trophy with a 34-23 victory.
Ohio State reportedly spent $20 million on this year's roster, putting college football on notice. It's a new day and your school purse needs to be open to competition.
