                CONGRATULATING THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY

  (Mr. STIVERS asked and was given permission to address the House for 
1 minute and to revise and extend his remarks.)
  Mr. STIVERS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate my alma mater, 
the Ohio State University, on being the first team to win the college 
football playoff. Go, Bucks.
  After beating the number one-ranked University of Alabama team in the 
Sugar Bowl, the Ohio State University beat the number two-ranked team, 
the University of Oregon, last night 42-20 to become the first 
undisputed national champion. Go, Bucks.
  This Buckeye team has heart, talent, and teamwork on their side. In 
fact, they are the first team in history to be ranked outside the top 
10 in November and go on to win a national championship. Go, Bucks.
  This championship is a result of coaches like Urban Meyer, Luke 
Fickell, and Chris Ash, and impressive scholar-athletes like Braxton 
Miller, J.T. Barrett, Cardale Jones, Ezekiel Elliott, Tyvis Powell, 
Darron Lee, Joey Bosa, as well as the entire Buckeye squad. Go, 
Buckeyes.
  Mr. Speaker, before I yield back the balance of my time, I want to 
leave you with this: O-H.
