The College Football Playoff has reached its first 12-team version, culminating in a national championship game between Notre Dame and Ohio State. The matchup has generated significant excitement, especially after the first-round games held on campuses saw all higher-seeded teams winning comfortably. The subsequent quarterfinals witnessed all top seeds losing after earning a bye, adding to the unpredictability of the tournament.

The national championship game is set to take place at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta on January 20 at 7:30 p.m. Eastern Time, with Ohio State heavily favored by 8 1/2 points according to BetMGM College Football Odds. Notre Dame, the 7th seed with a 14-1 record, will face off against Ohio State, the 8th seed with a 13-2 record.
