After what feels like a lifetime of waiting, the best football of the season is here, and you expect good things when you sit down to watch the College Football Playoff National Championship. Hopefully, there’s a good game, and before everything gets started, there’s some excellent singing, too.

Only one game remains in what has been the longest college football season in history, which started way back on Aug. 24, 2024, when Georgia Tech upset then-No. 10 Florida State 24-21 in Ireland. That contest in Week 0 certainly set the tone for what would be a wild college football season that will go down in the memory banks.
