Buckeyes legend, and 1974 and 1975 Heisman Trophy winner, Archie Griffin was also on hand to cheer on his alma mater, while hip-hop star Travis Scott also attended.\u00a0<\/p>\n
During his time at Ohio State, Griffin rushed for 5,177 yards on 845 carries, excluding bowl games.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Montana threw 4,121 passing yards in his three seasons at Notre Dame and helped lead the Fighting Irish to a national championship in 1977.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bettis recorded 1,912 rushing yards and 27 touchdowns in his three seasons in South Bend before going on to be a star with the Steelers in the NFL.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Bettis served as the honorary captain for Notre Dame \u2014 along with Griffin for Ohio State \u2014 and was on the field for the pregame coin toss and recorded a video for social media.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m here at the national championship. I\u2019m waiting for the Irish to go to work,\u201d Bettis said.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n
Gillis appeared on \u201cCollege GameDay\u201d ahead of the Fighting Irish\u2019s College Football Playoff game against Indiana at Notre Dame Stadium.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The popular comedian joked on-air that SEC teams had been paying its players and NIL rules had helped level the playing field, which angered former Alabama coach and ESPN analyst Nick Saban and created an awkward moment later on the set.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Gillis was featured in a recent commercial for Under Armor, praying for the Fighting Irish to win the national championship.\u00a0<\/p>\n
\u201cHey, God. It\u2019s me Shane. I know I haven\u2019t been here in a while, but I have a pretty big prayer for you,\u201d he said in the ad.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The prayer seemed to have gone unanswered, since the Fighting Irish went into halftime down 21-7 to Ohio State.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
