Oddest National Title matchup in a long time...

First off, both of these teams are damn good. At the beginning of the year, people could peg them as teams to make a nice tourney run (unless you were deterred by Tech losing stars from last year).
I can’t think of a national title matchup in basketball or football that seemed as odd as this. It’s not that the teams aren’t worthy. Hell, UVa was top 5 all year. They just aren’t the household names for a championship game.
Butler-UConn in 2011 stands out, but both teams had made a title game before.
Maryland-Indiana in 2002 gave me this vibe also. Indiana was historically great, though.
This is the first time since ‘79 that two first timers are in the title game.

Good, everybody bitches about CFB being the same teams every year.

People hate Virginia because of the brand of basketball the play. But they are getting the last laugh right now.

Tech and Auburn would’ve been really odd.

I’m just glad all the stupid kids from large suburbs in Texas with stds have something to celebrate they earned it

I don’t hate the matchup. I’ll enjoy the game and don’t really care who wins. I like seeing some new blood hoist a trophy.

It seems like the stupid kids with stds haven’t had a lot to celebrate?

Sam had the title for a few years

Texas Tech doesn’t strike me as that type of place. Just a party school on the plains I guess. In terms of national recognition, yeah...they don’t get to celebrate much.

It’s weird how to you because you are so used to Clemson BAMA

The UVA v TT game may be just as shitty and boring.
