Ohio State stars praise God after winning college football national title

Ohio State Buckeyes stars Will Howard and Jack Sawyer gave all the credit to God following their national championship victory over the Notre Dame Fighting Irish on Monday night. Howard and Sawyer played crucial roles in leading Ohio State to the win, making key plays throughout the College Football Playoffs.

In the championship game against Notre Dame, Howard threw two touchdown passes and made a clutch throw on third down to Jeremiah Smith late in the game. Sawyer, on the other hand, had three tackles and had a scoop-and-score in the semifinals against Texas.

As confetti rained down on the field at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta, Howard expressed his gratitude to his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. He thanked God for his faith, his teammates, his family, and all those who believed in him. Howard was at a loss for words but made sure to give all the glory to God.

After receiving the Offensive MVP Award, Howard once again praised God for giving him the opportunity to be a Buckeye. Sawyer, visibly emotional, talked about how he and his teammates came back to school with the sole purpose of winning the national championship. He credited God for being with them through the ups and downs and helping them overcome adversity.

Defensive MVP Cody Simon also acknowledged the role of faith in the team’s success. He thanked the Lord for doing something special for the team and expressed his gratitude for every player who put in the work throughout the year.

Notre Dame quarterback Riley Leonard had suggested before the game that both teams’ strong faith in God had guided them to the national title game. He believed that Jesus had been looking over both teams throughout the season, putting them on a pedestal for a reason.

The players’ faith was evident both on and off the field, with many of them publicly acknowledging their belief in God and attributing their success to Him. The Ohio State Buckeyes and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish showcased their faith and gratitude following a hard-fought championship game.

The victory was not just a triumph on the football field but also a testament to the power of faith and belief in something greater than themselves. Howard, Sawyer, and their teammates were grateful for the opportunity to play the game they love and to have the support of their faith throughout their journey to the national championship.
