During the National Championship game, Kirk Herbstreit will be attempting a 15-yard football throw for the chance to win a $1 million for Extra Yard for Teachers. In addition to Kirk’s throw, a teacher from each state will be there to attempt a football throw for the chance to win $25K donation from Eckrich to Extra Yard for Teachers.
