Jones threw for 243 yards, including a 47 yard touchdown to Devin Smith that put the Buckeyes ahead for good early in the third quarter. He also ran for 43 yards and converted a crucial third down play on a 1 yard dive with Ohio State (13 1) clinging to a 34 28 lead.


On the next play, Elliott took a handoff, broke one feeble attempt at a tackle, and was gone for an 85 yard touchdown that clinched the victory with 3:24 remaining.


Alabama (12 2) was denied a shot at its fourth national title in six years.
