2021 National Championship Game: open thread

Finally, the #1 Alabama Crimson Tide (12-0) face the #3 Ohio State Buckeyes (7-0) in the CFP National Championship Game presented by AT&T. Tonight, Alabama looks to win their sixth national title in twelve seasons, while Ohio State looks to win their second national title in seven seasons.

This is the second meeting in the College Football Playoff between Alabama and Ohio State, with Ohio State winning the first meeting in the 2015 Allstate Sugar Bowl, 42-35, on their way to the first CFP National Championship. Hopefully, tonight’s championship game will resemble that exciting 2015 semifinal as opposed to 2021’s lopsided semifinal games.
