Ohio State’s defense has been hard to score on all season and that remained true even in a College Football Playoff National Championship, where it surrendered 23 points to Notre Dame. The Fighting Irish are one of just four teams in the last two years to score more than 17 points on Ohio State,

After the game, Ohio State head coach Ryan Day was being interviewed on the field by ESPN’s Holly Rowe, basking in the win.
