It is LSU’s first national championship since the 2007 season. LSU’s win snapped Clemson’s 29-game winning streak.

Thaddeus Moss had five catches and two touchdown grabs. Terrace Marshall Jr. had an impressive touchdown grab in the fourth quarter to ultimately put the game away.

Patrick Queen was named the defensive player of the game. He had six tackles and a half-sack in the win.

Clemson started the game off with a rushing touchdown from Trevor Lawrence in the first quarter. It was the first time the LSU had been trailing in a game in 78 days, according to The Advocate.

However, LSU nixed any kind of momentum Clemson had in the second quarter. LSU outscored Clemson, 21-10, in that frame and it gave them some momentum going into the second half.
