The national champion Ohio State Buckeyes topped the final Associated Press Top 25 college football poll of the season. Notre Dame finished No. 2 for its highest end-of-season ranking since 1993.

Tiger Stadium, the home of the LSU Tigers, was completely blanketed in snow. The last time snow fell there was in 2018. LSU’s social media team shared an aerial video as well as a photo from the field level. In the photo, they placed a Tigers helmet on the snow-covered field, giving fans a better idea of how much snow had actually piled up.

Ohio State and (7) Notre Dame will face off for the sport's most illustrious prize. This will be Notre Dame's first shot at a national championship since 2012, while the Buckeyes are back in the national title game for the second time under coach Ryan Day.
