The Michigan Wolverines have officially won the 2024 College Football Playoff National Championship!

Michigan (No. 1) beat out Washington Huskies (No. 2) to take home the title in a 34-13 victory at NRG Stadium in Houston on Monday night.

"There are over 100 Michigan men that are on this team, in uniform tonight," Michigan coach Jim Harbaugh said on the trophy presentation stage. "What they've done for the last 372 days is amazing. We're champions, simply known as national champions."

Michigan ended the season with a 15-0 record. With the title, this marks Michigan's first national championship appearance since 1997.

Michigan running back Blake Corum and defensive back Will Johnson were named offensive and defensive MVPs, respectively.

"I feel like this has been the perfect happy ending," said running back Donovan Edwards. "A lot of personal success, a lot of personal failures, but our ultimate goal was to win a national championship ... There's no other feeling than to go through what we have and still come out on top. So perfect story, a lot of adversity ..."
