Ohio State are backed to cover as they are crowned national champions.

Ohio State Form
Ohio State go into the National Championship Game having put their Big Ten disappointment behind them in emphatic fashion.
The Buckeyes opened the season with five straight wins, but suffered a setback in October when they were beaten 32-31 at Oregon.
They responded with a five-game win streak, only to see their Big Ten Championship Game hopes evaporate with a stunning 13-10 defeat at the hands of Michigan.
Ohio State rebounded in the opening round of the playoffs though, blowing out Tennessee 42-17, and they then avenged a regular season defeat by downing Oregon in the Rose Bowl, 41-21.
The Buckeyes’ postseason dominance continued in the Cotton Bowl too, as they took down Texas, 28-14, to advance to the national championship.
Notre Dame Form
Notre Dame enter the National Championship Game in red-hot form, having rebounded from a shock early-season loss with 13 straight wins.
The Fighting Irish opened the campaign with a 23-13 victory at Texas A&M, only to suffer a sensational 16-14 defeat when they hosted Northern Illinois in their home opener.
That loss put them behind the 8-Ball in their quest to make the College Football Playoffs, but they responded to the adversity with a dominant run of form.
Notre Dame won 10 straight to make the postseason, and then took down Indiana in the first round, 27-17.
The Fighting Irish backed that up with a 23-10 victory over Georgia in the Sugar Bowl, before securing a trip to the National Championship Game with a dramatic 27-24 win over Penn State.
Verdict
Ohio State have torn through the opposition since the playoffs began.
The offense is firing and the defense is giving up less than 20 points per game, so we are backing the best team in College Football to live up to their billing in the biggest game of all.
