Monday night’s College Football National Championship certainly had its share of exciting moments. But it was the players’ glorification of Jesus Christ that took center stage.
After leading his team to a 34-23 victory over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish, Ohio State quarterback Will Howard took the time to praise his Lord and Savior for giving the Buckeyes the opportunity to compete for a national title. ---SNIP--- But it wasn’t only Monday night’s victors who went out of their way to openly profess their Christian faith.

Imagine drafting Shadeur Sanders before Will Howard.
Doncha kniw the soi bois at espn just hated that. Except Herbie and Rece
I'm glad to see players (and people in general) becoming more open about their faith.
There is no national championship. If the seats in the playoffs ae decided by a vote, I don’t know what it is, but it’s not a championship.
The Browns would! They spend 230 million on an alleged sex offender charged with 32 offenses. Drove aFlacco out cause they didn’t want any stinkin white guy as a quarterback, even though he set franchise records!
OK, imagine drafting quarterbacks
1. Chad Pennington
2. Giovanni Carmazzi
3. Chris Redman
4. Tee Martin
5. Marc Bulger and
6. Spergon Wynn, before finally drafting
7. Tom Brady
in the sixth round as the 199th pick.
Here are The Montana Three of 1979:
Jack Thompson, Washington State
Phil Simms, Morehead State
Steve Fuller, Clemson
Glad to see
Giving God the glory
In the first round, all the home teams won. After that, every higher seed lost to the lower seed.
Interesting.
Now that it’s over, I’ve reached the following conclusions.
Eight teams are probably enough. Get rid of the bye week, have the four top teams host the first round, I think that having the top seeds playing their first game at home, instead of a neutral site, will place more importance on winning the Conference Championship. You got two teams in the Championship Game that didn’t even have to play in a Conference Championship game, much less win their Conference.
Four games is a lot to ask a team to play, because of the risk of injuries.
