I would add, both teams have talented skill players. Their offenses are not vanilla either. They both have top 10 defenses.
Love was 16/21 for 272 and 3 TDs. He had over 4100 yards and 32 TDs this year. He's got 6 guys catching passed under 25 years old. They are just going to be better.
Baker Mayfield was 22/36 for 337 and 3 TDs as well. He filled the shoes of the GOAT very well, vanquishing the defending SB champs in the process.
It's all about the QB, bud.
Both offenses had 1st time starting QBs (despite Love being there for 3 yrs), and had a very slow start to the season: TB (4-7), GB (3-6) before going on a run.
