Former Ohio State center Nick Mangold is the champ of all All-American champs — at least according to a fan vote. In honor of March Madness getting shelved, the All-American Bowl set up a bracket of All-Americans that have played in the prestigious game and allowed fans to advance the players all the way through to glory.
Mangold, a No. 8 seed, took advantage of peaking at the right time apparently, grabbed momentum and never looked back, defeating Reggie Bush in the championship game to claim the crown.
Prior to the big upset over Bush, Mangold took down Justin Tucker, Adrian Peterson, Ezekiel Elliott, Vince Young, and Derrius Guice. That’s quite the gauntlet to go through, but Mangold used social media as a secret weapon to pull off the historic run that will long be remembered at the dinner table in his household.
Way to put together a solid gameplan Nick!
Congrats to a former Buckeye, and well played.
