Ohio State and Miami are set to meet in the Cotton Bowl, a College Football Playoff quarterfinal, on New Year's Eve.

Its akin to a pinch hitter winning an MVP award in baseball, or a sixth man (first player off of the bench to replace a starter) in the NBA being named league MVP. During the season, Redskins kicker Mark Moseley went from nearly being traded to having a career year. But was it really worthy of being named MVP? However, MVP voters gave Moseley the nod in a close 35-33 vote over Fouts, thus establishing history as the only time a kicker who played solely on special teams was named league MVP. In 1954, kicker Lou Groza was named MVP, but he also doubled as an offensive lineman.
