Was nice to watch a game that I really didn't have a dog in the hunt. I tended to lean toward LSU only because Clemson has won so often in the last few years. A few observations. First, the game took way too long. ESPN had so many commercials that a 60-minute game took over 4 hours. That is just plain ridiculous. Second, there was a bit of karma with the ejection for targeting. Ohio State could make the argument that the ejection they experienced in the semi-final was way more damaging as it was called on a 4th down that would have lead to a punt. For me it seemed like a turning point and Lawrence arguably caused the call by lowering his helmet and a little bit of very good acting when he went to the ground. So while I understand the anger of Clemson fans, its only because I think its a stupid rule. But I didn't hear them saying that after they beat OSU. Finally, Burrow is one fine QB and has a very bright NFL career ahead of him. He is all business and threw some bold passes and ran effectively. The Bengals would be crazy not to take him as their first pick.
All in all a pretty good game and both teams deserved to be there.
