Ohio State has embraced their new rivalry with Lou Holtz, and some Buckeyes fans trolled the legendary Notre Dame coach with an awesome sign during the College Football Playoff National Championship game on Monday night.
Lou Holtz may not get to celebrate a Notre Dame title in Atlanta. Notre Dame is down 31-23 to Ohio State in the National Championship Game. The Fighting Irish allowed 31 straight points after opening the contest with a 15-play touchdown drive that lasted nine minutes and 45 minutes.
Former Notre Dame head coach, Lou Holtz, is at it again. The former Fighting Irish head coach loves to keep his name in the headlines any way he can, and now he’s using a beef with Ohio State’s Ryan Day to do just that.
"Where is Lou Holtz?"  That question is going to be asked all week leading up to the College Football Playoff championship game between No. 7 Notre Dame and No. 8 Ohio State at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Monday.
It should be noted Holtz was an assistant at Ohio State during the 1968 championship season under Woody Hayes, so he has a little Scarlet and Gray in him as well.
Ohio State and Notre Dame will square off in the College Football Playoff national championship on Jan 20 in Atlanta.
Marcus Freeman helped turn around the Notre Dame Fighting Irish after a disappointing loss to Northern Illinois and earned himself a prestigious honor as a result.
The TVers were Kirk Herbstreit and Chris Fowler on primarily ESPN. From SI this morning, “Herbie was on the call, The emotions poured out of Herbstreit, who brought tears by his alma mater’s victory.” He was the starting quarterback for the Buckeyes from 1989-1992.

If someone tells you that games don't come down to one play, just show them this one, and Ohio State did what it needed to seal the win.
Though the article adjective in the title is unnecessarily capitalized, like it or not, The Ohio State University is the 2024 champion of college football.
