The Kansas State transfer had faith on his mind as confetti rained down on the field at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta.
"First and foremost, I gotta give the glory and the praise to my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. I wouldn’t be here without him," Howard said. "I wouldn’t be here without my teammates, without my family, without everyone that bet on me back in Downingtown, Pennsylvania, I’m at a loss for words right now."
Howard praised God again as he received the Offensive MVP Award.
"Before I say anything, I gotta give my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ all the glory, all the praise. Amen," he said, adding that he was "so glad God gave me a chance to be a Buckeye."
Sawyer appeared to be stunned when talking about how he and his teammates came back to school in order to win the national championship.
