Sometimes as sports fans, we are treated to match-ups and games that define the sports culture! The story lines builds the excitement and outlines the drama. But at the end of the day, it comes down to the men and women that devote their lives to the games.

Last night the National championship did not disappoint. Number 1 (and they may be the best college football organization of all time) Alabama takes on Number 2 Clemson in a rematch of last year’s title game.

Most people believe that Alabama was the sure win.  I mean, they were last years champion and they are undefeated so another national Championship is to be expected.  Their defense could stand up to some NFL teams…Seriously!  If they were to win, that would be their 6th title.  They are the true College Football Dynasty.

Clemson has what some argues as the best quarterback in college football, though he came up second in the Heisman Trophy race.  Deshaun Watson, has found success against the Alabama stingy Defense.  Last year he had nearly 400 yards in total offence.

The first half was slow and Alabama took control of the game, giving Clemson NOTHING! Halftime score was 14-7 Alabama, but it wasn’t that close!

Second-half was pure fireworks!  Alabama scored first with a field goal but Clemson was ready! They battled back to take the lead just to give it back up again with just about a minute to play.  They were down three points and had to march down the field to tie or take the lead.  And take the lead they did with a touchdown pass to win the game with only one second left on the clock.  They did an on-side kick to make sure Alabama did not have a chance for a Hail Mary.

Clemson pulls off the victory in what was one of the best games in college football. Congrats to the new National Champions!
