On Monday, college football's 2024 season will come to an end when No. 6 Ohio State and No. 3 Notre Dame play for the national championship.
The game coincides with Martin Luther King Jr. Day, and Fighting Irish coach Marcus Freeman has had to field a number of questions about his attempt to become the first Black and Asian coach to win the national championship. Freeman has been somewhat reluctant to address such questions, preferring to keep the focus on his team, but on Saturday he spoke at length about not allowing the game to get in the way of the holiday.
