National Championship

Florida State Considering Raising Banner If Undefeated Season Continues

by

Florida State could further defy the institution of college football if they end their season undefeated. Players have admitted to serious discussions about raising a national championship banner if they end the season as the only undefeated Power 5 champion. “It’s only right. Nothing else needs to be said if we’re the only undefeated team,” linebacker Kalen DeLoach told ESPN. There are just two other undefeated Power 5 champions, with Michigan and Washington both playing in the College Football Playoff.

However, the team also stressed that they were strictly focused on their upcoming Orange Bowl matchup with Georgia. “The Orange Bowl is an awesome bowl, one of the best in the country, and we have a great opportunity in front of us playing Georgia. It’s still a big game for us, and we’re taking it serious. We’re focused on the guys we have here to help us win the game,” quarterback Brock Glenn said.

Florida State Short-Handed Against Georgia

Finishing 14-0 would be a great testament to Florida State’s tenacity given the short-handedness they have been burdened with heading into the Georgia matchup. A quarterback is the aforementioned Glenn. Glenn began the year as the third-string quarterback but will make his second career start following the ACC championship game. QB1 Jordan Travis remains sidelined with a broken leg. Meanwhile, second-stringer Tate Rodemaker announced he would be skipping the game to enter the transfer portal. Several other players have announced that they will skip the game, either to focus on the NFL Draft or enter the portal. Overall, nearly 20 players will be unavailable for the Seminoles.

Meanwhile, Georgia will be looking to bounce back from the loss that ended their title defense and arguably led to Florida State’s snub. Furthermore, despite nearly 20 Bulldogs either transferring or draft declaring, head coach Kirby Smart has said the team will largely be a full strength besides injuries. “Right now we’ve got our guys that are healthy playing. Guys that are completely healthy and cleared to play, they’ve all said they’re going to play. They’ve been practicing, doing everything. We do have guys dinged up and injured that have been trying to fight their way back. We’ll see if they can go or not in the game,” Smart said.

Quavo Storms The Field After Georgia Wins The National Championship

by

Quavo is one of the biggest Georgia Bulldogs fans in the world. Throughout the last few years, Georgia has consistently been part of the Final Four. Whenever they play or make it to the National Championship, the artist is there to cheer the team on. As you can imagine, that was certainly true on Monday as the Bulldogs were looking to go back-to-back.

Overall, it wasn’t much of a game as the Bulldogs unleashed on the TCU Horned Frogs. TCU were underdogs, however, they didn’t even put up a fight. The final score was 65-7, and if you are a Georgia fan, it was a momentous occasion. Although, for the Horned Frogs, it was an indictment of their high ranking.

Regardless, Georgia fans will take a win like this every single day of the week. They are now the dominant team in college football and have taken over Alabama. Overall, this is great for the school and even better for fans like Quavo who love the team.

Quavo Takes The Field

Following the match, Quavo took to the field where he joined the players and some fans in celebration. The game was played at SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles, and the vibe in the stadium was immaculate. Everyone was having a good time, including the artist who had a big smile on his face.

Additionally, this was one final farewell for quarterback Stetson Bennett. While leaving the field in the fourth quarter, he received a massive standing ovation that speaks to his importance to the Georgia program. It was an emotional moment that he will remember for the rest of his life.
