In the history of the college football, no team has faced a tougher path to the championship. OSU fell to No. 8 in the CFP bracket after losing to Michigan but outscored its four postseason opponents – No. 9 Tennessee, No. 1 Oregon, No. 5 Texas and No. 7 Notre Dame – by a combined score of 145-75.

Ohio State defeated Notre Dame on Monday night to become the latest national champions. The college football championship stays in the Big Ten with Michigan winning the previous year against Washington.

The Ohio State Buckeyes won their first national championship since the 2014 season, beating Notre Dame 34-23. With that, they get to celebrate and put out a new round of merchandise to sell to fans of the team.
