On Tuesday morning, all eyes in America will be on the college football national championship and the sons of two AFL scions will be right in the middle of it.
On Tuesday morning Ohio State will face Notre Dame for the college football national championship with more than 30 million people watching, and two AFL scions will be right in the middle of it.
"I loved footy my whole life, played it my whole life, I wasn't particularly special at it but I was a decent kick," McGuire said. Once McGuire's talent was identified, he had to transform his body physically, so he linked up with renowned strength coach Dave Tuinaauvai and got to work. "It became something I fell in love with and I decided I had to do this and I couldn't leave any stone unturned, I dedicated my life to it for two years."Ohio State is one of the most storied programs in the country, with eight national titles to their name, and with over 100,000 people regularly attending their home games the passion can be overwhelming.
McGuire didn't broadcast how famous his father is back home — although his teammates eventually found out and had plenty of fun with it — but both his parents will be on hand at Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta for Tuesday's match.
