Ohio State. Simply: I live in Texas, there are OU fans of note around me, and as much as I love Jalen, I can't root for them to win another national title -- I would love to see Riley leave, though, and that might do it. I don't want a Clemson repeat, already tired of hearing how Thor/Trevor Lawrence is the greatest ever at 12 years old. I sure don't want LSU to win it, and have a season to remember forever at our expense. So I'm going Ohio State. I am rooting for some good football, because I will watch it, even though we're not in it.
I guess I'd like to see LSU take OU out (hurts to say with Jalen at QB), and Ohio State knock out Dabo and Thor. Ideally, a great national title game between LSU and Ohio State, and an Ohio State win.
That's if I could order it up. Now, what do I think will happen:
- Ohio State loses to Clemson, probably going down early and then a comeback falling short.
- LSU beats Oklahoma, although probably not nearly as easily as folks would think.
- LSU beats Clemson in a shootout of a national title game.
