Ohio State is your College Football Playoff national champion.
After jumping to a 31-7 lead, the Buckeyes let Notre Dame get back within a score. Then Jeremiah Smith showed up once again to haul in a deep pass on third and long to secure Ohio State’s ninth national title.
It’s been an unbelievable ride for Buckeye fans. The team was counted out after losing to Michigan. But it came together for a postseason run that will be remembered forever in Ohio State history.
It was a four-week run for the ages and fans put their pride on full display via social media. Time to take a look at some of the best reactions to Buckeye’s run to glory.

Toughest path ever
In the playoffs, Ohio State defeated:
#1 Oregon
#3 Texas
#4 Notre Dame
#7 Tennessee…by an average margin of 18 points
That might be the most dominant run in CFB history

Unsung heroes
Ohio State’s offensive line evolution from total liability to playing like a strength is one of the things most lost in the discourse of how the Buckeyes found themselves this CFP run.

Tip of the cap from Michigan?
I troll Ohio State a lot on here but it’s time to say a sincere congrats on the natty. Especially happy for my man @ShhhTAdelsberg who I know is screaming GO BUCKS up above with this victory.
Congrats Buckeyes. We’ll see you in November. 🤝

Respect from Michigan?
Congrats to Ohio State and their fans
Hell of a run and credit to Ryan Day for turning it around after the entire world was at his throat
Great team and Day earns some respect for not folding under the most immense pressure possible
