In   the   College National  Championship game Ohio State   beat Oregon 42-20. Ohio State's star running back Ezekiel Elliot rushed for 246 yards and four touchdowns. Ohio State's quarterback Cardale Jones, started out the year as the teams third string quarterback but due to injuries to Braxton Miller and J.T. Barrett played well and lead his team to victory. Oregon Quarterback and Heisman Trophy winner Marcus Mariotia threw for over 300 yards and two touchdowns but it wasn't enough for his team to win. This was Ohio State's first national championship as Urban Meyer became only the second coach in college football to win National Championships with two different schools.
