Hey, everyone. Welcome back to Power Hour. The Athletics National college football podcast hosted by yours truly, Nicole Auerbach.

I'm thrilled to be joined for a national championship reaction show by my friend and colleague Michael Fulte from Stadium.

We will break down all the biggest storylines in college football in an hour or less.

we want to make an immediate impact.

Felder, happy day after the national championship. We made it. We made it to the finish line.

I know. Cheers. I saw you in Indianapolis, which is nice. And listen, we got a game. We got a good game.

I think all the stuff that we've talked about kind of played itself out. And while we, well, I know myself picked Alabama to win, the things that Georgia needed to do

to get the W, they took care of. And so I'm very excited to celebrate them for getting the job done.

Me too. I think that there's, there's so many interesting tentacles of the result itself but I was

with you too we can start there you know because I think everyone always wants to know

your prediction for these types of things even you know and people especially love when we

get them wrong so I also took Alabama in a close game and the reason I did it was because I have talked myself into choosing against

Nick Saban multiple times. I've said, you know, this is going to be the team, this is going to be

the coach to do it. And then I just stopped doing it. Stop trying to be interesting with playoff

picks and game predictions and just said, I will default to riding with Nick Saban until the clock is

zero and it is not his team that won the game. So I was with you, you know, it was pretty clear

what Georgia needed to do to win this game. It was going to have to get a lot more pressure

on Bryce Young than they did the last time. Sets and Bennett was to need to be basically perfect, and we can get into his performance.

But, you know, they did what they did for almost every game this season.
