Congratulations to the Ohio State Buckeyes, winners of the inaugural football College Football Playoff national championship who also had the pleasure of meeting legendary actor-comedian Bob Newhart during their 42-20 victory over Oregon Monday night.
And here's what the 85-year-old Newhart had to say:
Okay, yeah, the head ref does look like Bob Newhart. "He didn't make Master Tinker until he was 490." #CFBConGMA pic.twitter.com/scSv0pVV8n

In regards to my new career as head ref for #OSUvsORE - Hey, I don't have a series any more - I had to do something. #OSUvsORE
