WWM College Football Playoff Finale

Wrapping up my version of the college football playoff using Fast Drive Football.

Semi-Finals

With Notre Dame out of the playoff, I just used FDF's Instant Results table to generate the semi-final scores.

• James Madison with another shocker! They beat #1 Indiana to advance to the championship game.
• Ole Miss squeaks by Ohio State 24-21

The Championship Game

Curious to see how James Madison would do, I decided to play the full game. They take on Ole Miss.

First Quarter

• JM gets a safety and a field goal to take a surprising 5-0 lead.
• OM drives for a TD. OM 7-5
• JM fumbles. OM recovers and drives for another TD. OM 14-5
• JM returns the kickoff for a TD. OM 14-12
• OM drives for a TD run. OM 21-12

Second Quarter

• Defense dominates. The only scoring is an OM field goal. OM 24-12

James Madison is still in this ballgame.

Third Quarter

• OM's defense dominates, shutting down JM.
• OM gets a TD run after a great punt return. OM 31-12
• OM recovers a fumble for a TD. OM 38-12

Ouch.

Fourth Quarter

• JM gets a TD after a great punt return. OM 38-19
• JM tries an onside kick but OM recovers. OM then gets a field goal. OM 41-19
• JM drives but turns the ball over on downs. OM runs out the clock.

Final score: Ole Miss 41, James Madison 19

Ole Miss wins the 2025 college football championship!

WHAT's NEXT?

Well that's over, but I'm still interested in some football. I'm thinking of building a fictional league and playing some games.
