Herbstreit posted “I’m so excited to FINALLY announce that I’m part of @EASPORTSCollege. I’m proud to be a partner and one of the voices of the game once again – my 14th year in that role.”

According to Michael Rothstein of ESPN, any player who opts in and has their name, image and likeness used in the game will receive at least $600 and a copy of “College Football 25.”

Corum carried the football 12 yards and shed a few tackles to cross the goal line, helping the Wolverines take a 27-13 lead over No. 2 Washington in the College Football Playoff National Championship.

Both teams traded field goals after Washington quarterback Michael Penix Jr. was intercepted by Michigan defensive back Will Johnson.

Neither team could muster offense when they had possession. As of 7:09 left in the fourth quarter, Michigan has gone 1-for-9 on third down and Washington 2-for-11.

Michigan leads 26-13 with just over seven minutes left to play.

Quarterback J.J. McCarthy was then tasked with earning Michigan some insurance points. 

McCarthy led the Wolverines on a 13-play, seven-minute drive that ended with kicker James Turner making a 37-yard field goal to stretch the lead to 30-24 with 1:00 left. 

McCord made two completions to receivers Harrison and Julian Fleming, and the latter fumbled the ball before Emeka Egbuka dove for the recovery. 

One play later, McCord dropped back and looked over the middle, only for his pass attempt to fall into the arms of Moore, his second interception of the season. 

The interception sealed Michigan’s third-consecutive win over Ohio State, earning the Wolverines their third-straight trip to Indianapolis to compete in the Big Ten Championship game against No. 17 Iowa next week. 

Michigan defensive back Will Johnson picked off McCord with 7:32 left in the first quarter, and the Wolverines cashed in their takeaway as running back Blake Corum scored on 4th and goal to go up 7-0.  

McCarthy threaded the needle on the very next drive. He found receiver Roman Wilson in a window between Ohio State defensive backs Denzel Burke and Malik Hartford for a 24-yard touchdown.  

The score capped a 14-play, 75-yard drive. Michigan led 14-3.  

The Buckeyes responded with their first touchdown of the game. McCord connected with Egbuka on a 3-yard touchdown to bring the game to 14-10 in the middle of the second quarter.

Ohio State missed a field goal to try and bring itself closer before halftime. The Buckeyes outgained Michigan 378 yards to 338, but lost the turnover battle 2-0 and allowed the Wolverines to go 4-for-4 on fourth down. 

McCarthy finished 16-of-20 for 148 yards and a touchdown. Corum had 88 rushing yards and two touchdowns. 

McCord went 18-for-30 for 271 passing yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. Harrison had a game-high 118 receiving yards.

Michigan was initially shut out in the first quarter, then the Wolverines running backs turned up the jets. 

Corum ran in the first touchdown from 3 yards out with 11:56 left to play in the second quarter. On the Wolverines’ next drive, running back Donovan Edwards punched in a 22-yard rushing touchdown to stretch Michigan’s lead to 14-3. 

Penn State quarterback Drew Allar ran in a score of his own in the final minute of the first half, and the two-point conversion failed on the ensuing play. 

That was the name of the game for Penn State. The Nittany Lions trailed by eight points for much of the second half after Michigan kicker James Turner made a 22-yard field goal. 

The Wolverines ended the game having ran 30-consecutive rushing plays. Quarterback JJ McCarthy, who didn’t attempt a pass in the second half, finished 7-of-8 for 60 yards. 

Corum had another big run of 30 yards that went into the end zone late in the fourth quarter to put the Wolverines ahead 24-9. 

After three first down conversions, Allar found receiver Theo Johnson from 8 yards out for a touchdown, and once again, the two-point attempt failed, keeping the Nittany Lions down 24-15 the rest of the way.
