CFP national championship: Charles Woodson, more react to Michigan's title triumph
Party like it's 1997.
The Michigan Wolverines are back on top of the college football world after a defensive performance that kept Washington's high-powered offense and star quarterback Michael Penix Jr. off balance all night. In his ninth season after returning to his alma mater to try to lead it back to glory, Jim Harbaugh has won a national championship in what might be his final game as Michigan's head coach.
[Michigan does it at last, powering through Washington for first national title since 1997]
It's the 12th national championship Michigan has claimed in its storied history, and the first since current FOX Sports analyst Charles Woodson led the Wolverines to the top in 1997. Woodson celebrated the 2023 team's accomplishment on social media late Monday night. …
As did several others in the sports world with Michigan ties.
FOX Sports MLB analyst Derek Jeter, a Michigan native and diehard Wolverines fan, was also in attendance for the game alongside Michael Jordan. Jeter later voiced his celebration on social media, as did fellow Michigan superfan Ric Flair.
