Everyone was excited for the College Football Playoff National Championship on Monday night, not only for a showdown between No. 1 LSU and No. 3 Clemson, but also featuring top NFL Draft quarterback prospects this year in LSU’s Joe Burrow and next year in Clemson’s Trevor Lawrence.

After a start involving a surprising amount of punts, the game got going and started getting exciting with two high-octane offenses.

Once halftime hit with LSU up 28-17, local Arizonans were quick to look at the clock and say, “8:15?! A two-hour first half?! How?!”

Twitter was even more confused when halftime lasted nearly a half-hour.

A first half that goes two hours and a halftime that is polishing off hour No. 3 isn't helping matters here. Let's get this show back on the road.

Indeed, it was that long, We were in for what felt like a game that would last an eternity.

This game is going to go at least five hours, isn’t it?

We arrived at the point where fatigue started to kick in for some.

I've stayed up as long as I can watching this football game but, with a minute left in the 3rd quarter and an eeeearly wakeup call, I have to go to sleep now.

Please tweet me what happens. Wrong answers only.#CFPChampionship

Pleas for the fourth quarter to take place on Tuesday were made.

Can we finish this game tomorrow?

Fortunately for those looking to get some good sleep before work, Burrow and the Tigers … uh, we mean, LSU, turned it up a notch and went up 17 with 12:08 remaining at 9:41 p.m. local time, putting us at nearly three-and-a-half hours of the football.,

And nearly at four if you were one of the many who got conned by the 6:00 p.m. start time that didn’t feature kickoff for another 20 minutes.

The game wrapped up around 10:15 p.m. local time, locking in a four-hour run time.
