From a UGA grad/fan, congratulations to Michigan! You guys were the most physical & consistently well coached team this season.

Most watched title game in 4 years. 🔥

I’m literally 25 and this championship means so much to the state as well, there has not been a championship team in the state of Michigan since the 08 Red Wings. Still hasn’t sunk in, Go Blue

Alabama hires a former 2021-22 Michigan coach for a month before the Rose bowl... no one talks about that.

Bama fan here I would like to congrat.Mich .on winning the National Champ.the team showed class and sportsmanship.

As a 33 year old man who became a Michigan fan to piss off my family at 15. It's about damn time. Ive been enjoying rubbing it in to my Ohio State Iowa loving family. Go Wolverines

"Me and Michigan against Everybody" Love it ❤

Im 34yrs old and became a Michigan "fan" in 1999. The one thing that turned us back from a top 20 team instead of a top 5 team is QB play. We we're always a top tier team from 1999-07. After Chad Henne left we fell off. From 2008-2020 were some dark years where if we had a QB we could have competed for Big 10 champs CFP spots. JJ really took this team over the top. 2024 National Champion Michigan Wolverines LetsGoBlue!

I think its important to note the NCAA cant vacate the title at all. CFP is a not connected to NCAA, NCAA doesn't have power over CFP and titles. This is needs to be talked about more.

Bummed that my Pac12 is no more, but kind of liking the Big10…👊🏻🏈

Top three markets who watched the game Detroit, Seattle-Tacoma and then Columbus! That says something. Was someone watching hoping for a Michigan loss perhaps?

The rose bowl should always be the final game for the national title. It's always going to get a bigger audience. It's just the perfect American stadium 🏟. So many memories

Last time Michigan won a Natty 1997.... Year i was Born 1997. Safe to say I’ve never seen UofM at this level . I'm all for it. Congrats Michigan

Michigan looked STRONG. No doubt about it. Would love to have seen a Michigan v UGA game.

This was the best observation on Michigan I’ve heard.. huge Fan of the channel

No damm asterisk... Mich had pictures (allegedly) of a white poster board with a pizza slice 🍕, ∆ delta symbol, and 🐔 chicken on it. Decipher that and I guess it's cheating nowadays.... c'mon Harbaugh put together an awesome squad that physically dominates the opposition. End of story. 15-0🏆🔥💙

Have to say this was my favorite playoff of the CFP era, speaking as a football fan not a homer wearing fan goggles. All the games, except for the last were competitive. But more importantly, I think it demonstrated that, like boxing, it's a game of styles where often the seedings can determine the winner. My thoughts going in was that Washington would do better against Alabama or Texas. Another thing oft not considered is the element of chance oft describes as "which way the ball bounces". Michigan totally dominated the 1st half of the Alabama / Michigan game ... Alabama was almost unstoppable in the 2nd half. With Michigan on 4th and 2,I think everyone on the field, at the game and watching the game ... when that ball was tipped at the line of scrimmage believed the game was over.... when it was caught, looking at Alabama faces on the field, they already looked defeated, Those kinds of changes in what loosely call "momentum" have crushing effect on teams when they stop playing to win, and play "not to lose".

The fans and talking heads had Penix envy. Impressed by those substantial numbers. They discovered Michigan pounds it better than anyone. Bigger stronger, more endurance and more dominant. They finish spectacularly

People that don’t understand football at a high level are the ones that criticize JJ McCarthy. A casual fan doesn’t realize that the receivers dropped 5 passes during that Natty game. He’s 15/18 for about 200+ without the drops that hit guys right in the hands.

I tried telling these pac 12 and washington fans all week that michigan had a better chance of winning this game but they were delusional. I had a guy tell me utah would have the same or better defense than michigan if they played in the big ten conference. I couldn't believe it. 😅 loved Josh's take on the sign stealing scandal too. No sign can make you out physical a bama team. It's great to be a michigan wolverine.

As being a fan from the southeast, am I a fan of Michigan? No. Do I respect how team has performed last couple years? Absolutely. They have a 3-peat win over OSU rivals and beat Bama. I’ll be the first one to admit this: if you can beat OSU, Bama, or Ga during a season, you have something. And they beat 2 of the 3 only because they didn’t play Ga. Do I think they can beat Ga? I don’t know. Would I have loved to see that match up? Heck yes! I’m not even a Ga fan.

Congratulation Michigan on winning a national championship this year, but those recruiting ranking almost made me spit up my drink. I am a Texas A&M football fan, who has been able to recruit significantly better than Michigan in recruiting, but was unable to develop the necessary culture or brotherhood that Michigan has had under Jim Harbough. The main reason Jimbo Fisher got fired was obviously not winning games enough, but more importantly he was unable to build the culture and brotherhood that tends to makes a team fight for each other against a common opponent. I hope Mike Elko will be able to recruit both through high school and the portal, which is another conversation, while also being able to build culture or brotherhood of us against the world in college football.

Michigan didn't cheat, sign stealing is not illegal. Michigan is accused of breaking a rule by the NCAA pertaining to in-person scouting. But the rule was put in place as a financial matter not an performance advantage. So I believe no wins will be vacated, but there will be fines, scholarships taken and possible game suspension.

If the reports of cheating happened after the season, take away their championship. However, they beat 4 teams in the top 10, two of them without their head coach. It's absolutely insane. LEGIT Champs. Congrats Michigan Nation. Go Tigers!

Yup - if Michigan had suddenly collapsed mid season after the firing of Stallions, then we wouldn't be having this discussion anyway. Michigan kept winning. Because they were good. The stupid sign stealing BS was unnecessary the entire time. Still gotta play good football to win. Congrats, Michigan fans. Savor it.

Jeff Lebby caught advanced scouting and served a half game suspension Connor stallions caught advanced scouting and was terminated Baylor faced NO OTHER sanctions and the half game suspension was the only thing that happened Harbaugh served a 3 game suspension even though the ncaa said “no evidence Harbaugh knew of stallions actions” The precedent has been set with Lebby and Baylor

I'm upset with the whole ESPN crew right after the win they immediately went into his the title is tainted by the cheating and how Jim harbough will be gone next year so Michigan won't be as good so it's really irritating me as a Michigan fan I've canceled my ESPN package and stopped reading anytime associated with ESPN they have been negative about Michigan all year and I'm done with them forever!

Congrats, Michigan! Hopefully my Sooners can do that one of these days...

This is a man in love with his word choices, that all add up to very little decent analysis. Good job with the thesaurus, duuuudes!! lol

Josh, I'd like you to read about Biff Poggi. He is the guy that turned the program around

The NCAA President said Michigan won the National Championship fair and square.

Michigan reminded Josh that he was wrong too.

Just saying this… Pate said Michigan loses 4 games at the beginning of the season

FOR THE TEAM BY THE TEAM

Magical Year for a Michigan Fan.

NCAA can’t take away all the money I won betting on Michigan the last 3 years!

Did me a favor… covered and was under 55 😂

Its still a hat on a hat game u still need to block and tackle. If u can do that better than ur opponent, u are going to win a lot of games.

Im 30. Been a fan since i was 8. Ive only seen michigan win 4 bowls in my life & 2 were this year

Congrats Michigan, Josh, question what was NRG Stadium called before name change??

Question for Josh: is "zagging" slang for cheating? 😂😂😂 sorry couldn't resist. Congrats Michigan fans. Yall were the best in college football this year

Jim Harbaugh met his wife at PF Changs, so I think PF Changs is the place to go to solve a lot of problems

"No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better." -- Samuel Beckett

BET! GO BLUE 🏉

They did it

Truly Awesome OH YA “ GO BLUE〽️

'me and Michigan vs everybody'?!?!? Sorry, picking them once after repeated picking against them when the heat was on high, you are still one of the everyone

Beat Alabama, Ohio state, penn state, and Washington all straight up so please just shut up, michigan was clearly the best team in college football period!!!!

YOU PICKED AGAINST US ALL YEAR

The viewership stat is deceiving, as is most stats- you have to step back and look at it & most people don’t. College football is still very regional, especially popular in regions that don’t have any pro sports, not just football because options are king. The sport has to grow in big markets, aka the northeast corridor, The DC/Baltimore market, California, etc… if the sport is only dominated by the SEC, it has reached its zenith especially with advertising, as they prefer an wider reach not just one culture. Michigan is a more powerful brand than any SEC team not named Texas or A&M. Their alumni base and endowment are a huge indicator. The vast majority of those views were because of them. Ohio state Vs Michigan in the natty would break the record. Unfortunately, outside of the south(Texas & Florida not included), you won’t find Alabama/Georgia/LSU casuals and the casual fan is the what the sport needs to grow. And a big reason for that is the south’s history & lower population, unfortunately. Regions and cities follow their local college teams, in general, if that. It’s not cool to wear an Alabama or Georgia tees in LA or NY, like it or not- that’s an indicator. For the sport to get to NFL heights, it has to have teams/fans in the big cities and it has to have NFL parity.

How can you say it's you against everybody when you are the one who voted against Michigan in the national championship?

This season proved to me Pate don't know fuck all about football.

I was thinking about that when I was watching the game what you said after that Georgia game 2 years ago

Blitz Bama blitz

Its not tainted. If it was anything more serious than the original news which is stallions acting on his own (maybe aided by a booster). (Nothing that has come out changes the original allegation). Than they wouldn't of even been playing.

There will always be an *

Well I'm torn, with all that has been spread about the Michigan program this year. There is a question about the program that they need to check into. I would like to think. I know you will say every team does it. I don't believe in that scenario. There can only be right or wrong in my opinion. All teams should have merit to their programs.

Physically BEATS!

The Michigan Cheetahs

😂 stfu Josh too funny great show GO BLUE!

GO BLUE 〽️4EVER 🏆

I 48

Tom Brady syndrome... that chip on his shoulder drove him to success. Same with McCarthy.

Tainted? Really? It’s the pundits like you Josh that just want a headline that are making it any big deal. If anyone knows anything about football they will know how much that the allegations of doing something that EVERY OTHER TEAM DOES as well, that has no impact on physically destroying your opponent. I think we knew that Penix was going to throw the ball. No secret there when your RB #1 is on one wheel. The more football knowledge you have, the more you understand that was all bs, planted by a coach down yonder that needed to win to keep his job. Every team does this and it’s not illegal!

Do you think Washington's Joe Moore winng offencive line couldn't stop Michigans 4 defencive line most of the game.

I am watching Klatt, on3, and this show and all three are saying the same things. Did ya’ll get together to spin the same narratives???????

THERE IS NO SOUND ON THIS ONE 👍🏽 just a Friendly note

Whoa Michigan creates a new college football paradigm: no head coach required.

Next season is going to be a ZOO! 😊

You're forgetting the 2006 season. They were definitely a threat that year.

Oh noooo, the SEC fans can’t ride the coat tails of Bama/Georgia anymore… maybe they will wake up to the rest of college football finally. ORRRR, they will keep spouting Bama/Georgia stats and think it makes their school better

Remember....the SEC Championship game (you remember, you watched) was in the top ten most watched TV events of all time. Maybe the Wolverines should pump the breaks here, because the SEC still rules on a national level, and the numbers prove it. Now go back to enjoying the Michigan win, but w perspective and in moderation, please.

Cheating gave us Joe Biden and the Wolverines.

You hypocrites that what FSU did enough to wiIN

People think a 12 team playoff will be easy to get into! This year Oklahoma beat Texas and they have two losses. They finish 13th and they wouldn’t have been in the 12 team playoff, Oklahoma blue blood traditional powerhouse with two losses would have been the first team out and 12 team playoff, a team that beat Texas on a neutral field!so don’t think this is going to be easy for teams to make the playoff every year! Because it’s not!

The "tainted" crowd needs to grow up.

I just wanted everyone to know… I hate michigan

The formula is still the same……recruit top 10(preferably top 5) and have a stud QB. A one year fluke doesn’t disprove that, and let’s face it, UGA(a team I absolutely loathe) would have proven it again…….glad they didn’t 3 peat though.

The fact that Bama was mentioned NUMEROUS times to validate their championship just warms my heart…we are still the gold standard in college football even with a trash OL and super inexperienced QB. 🐘

Michigan Manifesto; pg 95; "What is cheating and how to change the media's narrative to meet financial expectations" Writer's Notes: Florida State needs a Manifesto

Nope. Penix lost it all. His passing, even when not rushed, was terrible. He could have won that game, but he seemed overwhelmed with the situation. Michigan didn’t need a quarterback.

The missed holding calls on Michigan players. that were called against UW, were a huge factor in a game that was one score with 7 mins to go. If you watched on TV you saw the holding calls on screen. Might now have been easy if you were there in person

Cheated. 🎉

Message to kids: cheating pays off. Big time.

And as the Bible foretells, the demon would rise from the north.

Remember kids cheating pays off

This game sucked! Washington is very overrated. Washington sucked. Michigan looked ok but not up to the standard of the last few years of having a real champion from the SEC.

Concerning the off-the-field stuff, here's what I think happens: Connor Stalions gets a lifetime show-cause penalty. Jim Harbaugh gets a three-year show-cause penalty (irrelevant, as he'll be in the NFL for that stretch of time.) The NCAA strips the Michigan football program of five scholarships per year for each of the next four years, makes a huge deal about it, and all the Michigan haters feel like they get their pound of flesh. No victories are taken away.

Whatever Pate, I am sure you are wearing flip flops and sway your bullshit which ever way the wind blows!!!!! 🤦‍♂️🏈

Hail! to the Cheaters valiant Hail! to the Cheating heroes Hail! Hail! to Michigan the Cheaters…cheaters Hail! to the Cheaters valiant Hail! to the Cheating heroes Hail! Hail! to Michigan, the champions of the CFP with nooo integrity.

Known Michigan as cheaters.

You cant give a team credit for winning with lesser players when they cheated lol.... gee i wonder how they did it 😂

I have been watching college my whole life and i must say it's a sad day because on Wednesday I watched the Michigan quarterback admit he knew they where cheating to keep up with Ohio states cheating so if he knew then all the coaching staff had to know also and kept on doing it

i’m sorry to tell y’all (i’m not) that there’s a good chance this gets taken away

Why was Michigan there at all? They admitted to cheating. Those games will eventually be vacated. They took a spot for someone deserving.

All the credit goes to connor stallions. The man completed his mission even playing the scape goat so they could get away with it.

I guess cheating pays off!

Literally could NOT care less about this NC… ready for the 12 team playoff.. Harbaugh is crooked and so is Michigan.. see ya in 2025 👋

Obviously MIchigan is a very good team. Equally obvious is that it is a very dirty program.
