Los Clemson Tigers se coronaron en la final del Campeonato Nacional de fútbol americano universitario por tercera vez en su historia (1981, 2016, 2018). Como hace dos años, volvieron a derrotar al ogro que domina la última década en la NCAA college, Alabama Crimson Tide, y esta vez con demasiada autoridad (44-16).
Lo hicieron destacando jugadores novatos que han maravillado a todo el universo del football. El quarterback Trevor Lawrence resultó ser el MVP de esta final disputada en el Levi's Stadium, con unos números escandalosos: 347 yardas en 20/32 lanzamientos, con 3 pases de touchdown y 0 intercepciones. No se puso nada nervioso ante la tremenda defensa de Alabama que anduvo desaparecida esta vez.
También cabe destacar la labor de dos receptores explosivos como Tee Higgins (con 3 capturas se recorrió 81 yardas) y Justyn Ross (153 yardas en 7 recepciones), quienes anotaron un touchdown cada uno, así como el running back Travis Ettiene. El sophomore de 19 años corrió 14 veces para 82 yardas y aportó dos anotaciones terrestres, añadiendo además un touchdown aéreo de 5 yardas.Por su parte, el grupo defensivo de Clemson también se comportó y dio la talla. Antes de que el ataque explotara por medio de Lawrence y compañía, la línea secundaria se reivindicó y se unió a la gran calidad de su front-seven para ser la pesadilla de Tua Tagovailoa.
Sin embargo, tras el descanso (31-16), Clemson puso la directa con 13 puntos más y convirtieron el último cuarto en un mero trámite hacia la victoria de los de Dabo Swinney. De hecho Tagovailoa se sentó y los minutos finales los tuvo que disputar Jalen Hurts.
