2017 was a year of the upset and the surprise in sports and the first major American championship followed the same path as a David versus Goliath match-up was in store and the result was surprising even if Goliath took the win.

The College Football playoff is still a young concept but the third year is a proving ground as it might just crown a typical champion or could provide a brand new champion but the result will tell a lot about the new system.

The National Championship came down to a dynasty that knew how to win taking home their fifth title against a team that couldn’t hold out for four quarters.

It is that time of the year as the Bowl Season is in full swing with the games only getting better in the lead up to the National Championship. Over the past few years it wasn’t until the new year when the big bowls took place that any of the top teams played. They were the BCS bowls and they led up to the National Championship where the two best teams in the country faced off. Things are done a little bit differently this time around though as the NCAA returned to the big six bowls. They brought back the Peach and Cotton Bowl to join the Fiesta, Orange, Sugar, and Rose Bowl.

The NCAA regularly has behemoths in the league that come out at the beginning of the season and look unbeatable. Some of these teams will even extend this winning tradition into years of dominance. This has happened to the Alabama Crimson Tide under Nick Saban who has become the best Alabama coach since Bear Bryant.

The NCAA Season is underway and once again one of the most exciting and debated leagues in football will continue on for another year. The NCAA is a league that seems to always be under fire as scandal seems to follow them at every turn. In many ways it is rightfully so as the NCAA is one of the strangest leagues in football as they rely on essentially free labour to make billions of dollars.

This is what the NCAA is all about as the National Championship is here and the matchup is a dream of all football fans. It is not the new and exciting offences or the new rising schools that will face off on January 7th but instead a call back to the old days. When I say old days I mean OLD days as two of the oldest NCAA programs face off for the biggest bowl game of the year.

The NCAA is a league that prides itself on providing top tier education to athletes from a number of sports. The two biggest sports in the NCAA are basketball and football and one big reason for this is the fact that these sports are the training ground for future professional athletes. The fun of watching these sports is to see the development of young talent as they do their best to make the professional leagues.

The BCS National Championship signified the end of another wild season in the NCAA with controversy again marking the season. This year it would be the LSU Tigers and Alabama Crimson Tide facing off to prove who was best in the NCAA. For many it should not have been this game as the question of who was better had already been solved. On November 5th these teams faced off in what was considered the de-facto National Championship.
