The Ohio State mascot Brutus trolled Lou Holtz after Ryan Day's Buckeyes won the college football national championship vs. Notre Dame.

Ohio State has embraced their new rivalry with Lou Holtz, and some Buckeyes fans trolled the legendary Notre Dame coach with an awesome sign during the College Football Playoff National Championship game on Monday night.

Lou Holtz may not get to celebrate a Notre Dame title in Atlanta. Notre Dame is down 31-23 to Ohio State in the National Championship Game. The Fighting Irish allowed 31 straight points after opening the contest with a 15-play touchdown drive that lasted nine minutes and 45 minutes.

Brutus Buckeye and Ryan Day fire back at Holtz's controversial comments after the Buckeyes secure the national title.

Former Notre Dame head coach, Lou Holtz, is at it again. The former Fighting Irish head coach loves to keep his name in the headlines any way he can, and now he’s using a beef with Ohio State’s Ryan Day to do just that.

"Where is Lou Holtz?"  That question is going to be asked all week leading up to the College Football Playoff championship game between No. 7 Notre Dame and No. 8 Ohio State at Mercedes-Benz Stadium on Monday.

Ohio State and Notre Dame will square off in the College Football Playoff national championship on Jan 20 in Atlanta.

It should be noted Holtz was an assistant at Ohio State during the 1968 championship season under Woody Hayes, so he has a little Scarlet and Gray in him as well.
