As a Buckeye, I hardly remember playing Oregon, but I will never forget Zeke taking it 85 yards "through the heart of the South" and beating the unstoppable Bama. As a 4th seed! With a 3rd string Quaterback!

It's just not as memorable as 4th seed beating 1 seed.

Zane Lee Errn .... 3rd down failures to convert are nott called turnovers, they are called failures to execute and that is an example of a bad team playing a good team. Bama got trucked !
Not at all what I was mentioning. The turnovers I was referring to were the pick 6 and the int after the bad punt by OSU around their 20. Those plays were the two biggest plays of the game. Both were bad passes by sims and changed the momentum of the game especially the tedzone pick .Honestly you are blind if you really think osu trucked bama.
Zane Lee I am not so blind as not to see the 4 turnovers that went to Bama which kept them in the game at all, and the catch by the Buckeyes that was ruled a none catch. I guess you missed those. Bama got trucked as expressed by all the networks, I guess you missed that also. To bad Tider, you couldn't talk your way into a title ..... again.
we didn't get trampled or slaughtered compared to the last time we faced them in the semi playoff. That was terrible and humiliating as a buckeye we came so far not but not close enough. Til next year we'll see what happens
jmaal2345 42-35 isnt running on country boys you survived and honestly shouldnt have been there you know that as well bc if you truly listened no1 had ohio state in there they just was bc the committee didnt want backlash for putting baylor in js
I'm a Florida fan and usually root for the SEC in non-conference games, but watching Urban Meyer get his revenge on Nick Saban by outcoaching him to another National Championship (with his third-string quarterback) is freakin' outstanding. I'm ready for the season to start! - Go Gators!!
+Franc Davis Urban didn't win by simply outcoaching Saban. He won by having the better team on his side. He's one of the best coaches out there, but it's pretty hard to win by outcoaching someone like Saban. Ohio State just had better football players. Even a mediocre or slightly above average coach could have pulled this win out. The only reason it was close was because of OSU's failure to finish drives, horrible field position, stupid turnovers and not to mention, some huge missed calls. You don't comeback down 21-6 by beating a superior team. Doesn't happen.
@@alexdelagrange2140 Outcoaching doesn't mean winning team is inferior. It's how pro games are won since the talent is so much closer. Good teams still blow out better teams, because a corner is burned in cover 3 by being outschemed with a hi lo means TD. Or a deep middle post split the safeties (which happened for a TD in this game) Its unreal the amount of sensitivity of CFB fans, you can't even praise a coaching job without getting someone upset.
First time I've re-watched this game since I was in NOLA; such a tough loss. A lot of people blame Blake for his struggles, or Kiffin for not running the ball enough. Personally I think most of the responsibility for the loss falls on the defense, 35 points should be enough to win a game if we want to be considered elite defensively. Either way, great game, congrats Buckeyes. All the OSU fans I came in contact with in NOLA were really pleasant people, it was nice to see so much mutual respect between two great programs.
cameronstate Could be that Nick Saban is paying more attention to his offense and not the defense like in previous years. Saban used to be involved in the defense almost entirely, now he is focused more on the offense with Lane Kiffin.
+cameronstate thank you for not being a classless SEC-chode and placing blame for the loss on everyone else. you're honest to god one of the first Bama fans I've seen that would actually admit the fault lies with Bama's D, and not the fact that "you guys won because Elliott's jersey was tucked under his pads and we couldn't tackle him..."(dead serious excuse I heard). it doesn't hurt me to say that Bama will be back, I wouldn't worry about this game. next year may be a "rebuilding" year, but think about this: THIS was supposed to be OUR "rebuilding" year..... and look what happened.
Finally, an SEC fan that isn't an asshole. (I know plenty from other conferences just SEC fans always seem to be a little ridiculous) someone that actually has respect for football, and understands the game.
That's actually not a bad statement (saying this in case your being sarcastic) he had a lot of amazing punts and this would of been a shitty game for Alabama if it wasn't for him.
@@thomaspaulgames77 I mean it was a shitty game for them if not for the mistakes early on in the game they let AL score from 25 yds out on the turnovers.
Amazing how many future pros were on that field. Michael Thomas' TD catch just before halftime was probably the play of the game. And Bama wasn't prepared for Cardale as a runner.
That was the best catch I think I have ever seen by Spencer towards the end of the 2nd quarter, awesome just awesome!!! that is all that is needed to explain that catch.
Ahhh, the day that Bama fans got proven wrong but then the excuses started as to why the "overrated, non deserving" Ohio State Buckeyes beat the almighty SEC gods.
+Allamericanlibertarian just like how derrick henry won the Heisman because he's a good player but the minute you don't let him run Forrest Gump straight he sucks?
+Allamericanlibertarian or just like how blake sims sucks so bad he had to flee to Canada to play ball? or like how Nick Saban abuses running backs so much they have no chance in the NFL because a bet MR so much deserving Heisman himself flops in the NFL. That running back from Stanford by the name of McCaffrey is 10 better than henry is. But since henry played for the almighty Alabama red water (I'd rather be a nut that water as a mascot) he "won" it.
Well, think about that one. Without the Buckeyes, who did Alabama have to go through? But we have recent history to refer to. The SEC doesn't because they're too chicken to play in hostile territory.
This game was probably the most satisfying win in my lifetime as an Ohio State fan, and it all boils down to how much I respect the Alabama Crimson Tide football program. The Tide have been the gold standard of college football over the last 10 years and it was extremely satisfying to knock them off on the way to winning a football national championship. Ultimately, I'll look at the following year as the biggest football rematch of all time that never happened, as OSU returned virtually all of their core players from the championship team however Bama came back to win it after that disappointing loss to MSU. In today's football hierarchy, it feels like it's Bama, Ohio State, Clemson, and everybody else when it comes to perennial success at the highest level... although Georgia has a chance to join the other three given that they play in the SEC which gives them "street cred" but are also out of the SEC East which is a division that they have a chance to really dominate going forward if they're able to capitalize from last seasons success. UGA has always felt like a program that's ready to ascend to the next level by instilling a little bit more discipline, team mentality and motivation in their players since they've routinely pulled in some of the top blue-chip players and in decent numbers for awhile now.
Timothy Bowling Cardale’s running was the biggest game changer. You could tell he was wearing down the Alabama defense. He was dishing out a lot of punishment lowering the shoulder.
Referees also had another call wrong, when Buckeye Evan Spencer caught a long pass from Cardale Jones at 1:05 minutes in this video. It was a completed pass but they called it incomplete
Andy Bravo I agree...BUT normally when a pass is incomplete, it looks "more and more incomplete" as I see it more and more. The more I see that Spencer incomplete pass, the more and more I think that is was a completed pass. I really believe that if the refs would have called it complete in the beginning, that video evidence wouldn't have been able to overturn it.
I never get tired of watching this game. Watching Ohio State outhit, outjump, out run, out physical, outsmart, and just flat out out play Alabama was a treat. The smug Alabama fans have no respect for Ohio State, and the Big 10 for that matter, and to watch us beat the pride of Alabama/SEC, right in their own backyard, was something special. They never in a million years thought they'd see their team get beat up like that.
@@nedstewart1 we played Georgia tough, probably should have won. Beat Alabama once, lost once. Beat Arkansas when they had a good team. 2 and 2 since 2010, we can hang with them now, our team since Meyer was here in 2012 is built different, specifically to compete with the SEC. I know SEC , the top 2 teams in any given year, are usually the 2 best teams in the country, i wont dispute that, but they can be beat occasionally, and we have the team to do it. You have to have an explosive, pass heavy offense, and team speed on defense. We have both, our defense really took a nose dive the last couple years, but its being addressed, it will be much better this year, just wait and see. The top 2 teams in the SEC are hard to beat, the rest on any given year are not much better than other conferences.
@@klaws32 Ohio State is better since Meyer and Tressel no doubt. Nothing stays permeant in college football. Florida State, and Nebraska had quite a run and were declared as Dynasties by the NCAA. Ohio State might be named a Dynasty if they can fix their defense. FSU was in the same shape with their offensive line as Ohio State's Defense and as a result became a mediocre team. Same thing sooner or later will happen to the Bucks. No one stays on top.
Let me say that this was a bittersweet game. May family is from Alabama, so I grew up a HUGE Tide fan. But I was born and raised in the midwest and went to Purdue (obviously). So, while I was disappointed in the results, the B1G fan in me was happy and proud to see tOSU do it's thing.
Alabama fans before the Sugar Bowl: "Blake Simms is one of the smartest, most efficient, most resilient QB we've ever had. he makes this team amazing. "Alabama fans *after* the Sugar Bowl: "Blake Simms is easily the worst QB we've ever had. he has no business being our QB, he has always sucked and HE is why we lost." you kids are priceless.
+Ohio Against The World Yeah, just like how they all talked their team up and once they lost it became "one of the worst TEAMS we've ever had". They are pathetic.
+Ohio Against The World Anyone watching from a non-bias POV would of known Blake Sims isn't good. Smartest, most efficient? Hell no, the dude throws interceptions like he thinks the defense is his team and that's why he is in the CFL. See you guys in the Fiesta Bowl :).
What an ignorant comment. No one said a damn thing about Sims after Bama lost. Every Bama fan respects him; he was a nobody before Kiffin molded him into a star. All I heard was how surprised we as a fanbase felt after losing to a team we didn't think was that good.
yes, they did. do you account for "every Bama fan"? I don't assume to know all the excuses everyone gave after OSU lost by a whole 3 points. I saw a lot more excuses than surprise after OSU won last year.
+Ohio Against The World No, I don't account for every fan. But generally speaking, Sims was very well respected as a player among the students. No rational fan would ever call a quarterback who set the single season passing yards record a bad player.
That 2015 team was Special. They put 42 pts on Alabama the tore the Ducks Oregon to Win the National title. The game last nite showed the BACKBONE & ENDURANCE. That Elliott run was one for the records. 🏆
(18:50) was the defining moment of the game and it completely changed everyone's fate. When a defensive linemen intercepts the ball for a return touchdown in a very tight game,, it changes the momentum of the game for good. Terrible decision by Sims, it was 27-21 and Nick Saban likes playing a conservative game...throw the ball where only your WRs can catch it. That single play energized OSU's defensive, eased pressure on OSU's offense, built lots of pressure on Alabama's offense and demoralized Alabama's defense who was playing okay prior to that play. It gave Ohio St a double digit lead and the confidence and inspiration to secure a win that night.
***** Yeah. I just looked up the game again and I forgot Alabama was up 21-6 and then the Buckeyes won 42-35. Buckeye fans can act like they're Kirk Herbstreit all they want, but it really was close haha. 42-35 = 7. "It's not always about the score." Ok.
***** Yeah. It was a great 4th quarter for sure. Can't wait for the new season to start. I think the chances are low that Ohio State or Alabama lose in game one. I know Ohio State has that Monday night game, and it's away, but I'd be surprised if OSU loses.
***** Wow Auburn begins with Louisville, then an easy one with Jacksonville State, but then they go to LSU and back home with Mississippi State. That’d be amazing if they come out of that run 4-0.
+Douglas A. Benefield - "ignored by suckeyes." seriously? coming from the fanebase whom %80 of pretends like this game never happened? and overlooking the fact that we were playing with a 3rd-string QB? lol c'mon, guys.
I'm amazed at how bad Trey DePriest looked. This is a kid that was seen as one of the best Ohio LB products to come out in years and there he was looking like a very out of shape nose guard. Not only did he look bad from a size perspective but if you just lock your eyes on him during play, he looks lost. He's always hopping around back there and sort of just moving around aimlessly.
make739 interesting comment. strange that the dude started since at least a sophomore and maybe even a few games as a freshman. What's that say about the other LBs on the team?
Ohio States w Urban Meyer beats ‘Bama w Nick Saban. These two coaches fought each other--Gators vs ‘Bama back in the days of Tim Tebow. Ohio is where I was born and lived to age 16 (Before moving to Utah--no I’m not Mormon.) so loving OSU! I got my undergrad and post grad classes at Univ of Utah. Then moved to Hawai’i in 1985. 2008--Hawai’i was slaughtered by the Crimson Tide in the Sugar Bowl...Most of us from HI were wearing slippahs (what you call flip-flops) and most were COLD. I had lived in Utah and had the requisite warm ski gear. An Hawai’ian neighbor said “I didn’t know snow and ice were so cold!” Well weather in HI is perfect--no snow or even cold weather. Never gets above 100 and never dips below 68. Jan, 2009--Utah Utes coached by Kyle Whittingham (who had been under Urban Meyer for 10 years as a defensive coordinator) became head coach when Meyer left in 2004 to go to Florida. The Utah Utes BEAT Nick Saban’s Crimson Tide 31-17...and it wasn’t close. Every time an Alabama fan sees me here in Atlanta, GA with my “Go Utes” license plate, they ALWAYS come up and make an excuse--“Oh we were tired from the SEC championship game.! One ‘Bama fan simply said “Utah was so much better! We were awful.” Urban Meyer made Utah a great team. We had no losses in three years and YET we were never named #1! Even in 2009 we ended up 12-0 vs “Bama’s 12-1. Yet they finished ahead of use in polls! Utes went from Western Athletic Conference (WAC) to MWC (Mountain West Conf) then onto the PAC-12 where we hold our own. Urban started at Bowling Green, OH where he was a special unit coach. Like Saban they both HATE mistakes as was seen here in this game! Meyer retired this year from his $7.6 million salary and multiple perks--own private plane, Golf club membership at one of Columbus’ best courses. to become an assistant head of OSU for $100K per year. (He’ll go nuts!) Jack Nicklaus went to OSU and all the courses esp the Scarlet and the Gray are superb courses. Nicklaus renovated both at no charge. Saban makes $7.5 million/yr and $400,000 increase each year PLUS substantial bonuses. In every state the highest paid salaries go to football and hoops coaches! Patently bizarre considering that the athletes get zip! Oh sure a free 4 year Bachelor’s--but finding time to go to class, study, and write papers is second to travel, memorizing the playbooks and two a day practices. College ball is a multi-billion dollar business. TIME TO PAY THE PLAYERS. Major League baseball has Rookie league, Single A to Trlple A...then The Show. Not football. Their “minor leagues” are college football and the NFL doesn’t pay a dime. No big salary to the deans of medical school or head epidemiologists at public health. Not the head economist that helps the governor and mayors with budgets. Heck the President of the US only makes $400K/yr--with unlimited time on AF1, and Marine One helicopters. Goes everywhere in a 13 car “parade” including an ambulance. The “Beast” the heavy armored personal car carries two bags of type-specific blood for the prez. Actually it’s time to end all American football. Too many head injuries resulting in CTE...one of the largest studies on the subject to date finds that 110 out of 111 deceased NFL players had chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a degenerative brain disorder associated with repetitive head trauma. Overall 87% of football players WILL get CTE! We turned Boxing into a nothing sport because the aim of boxing is to knock the guy out! That’s SEVERE damage to the brain!! The players with the worst CTE are NOT the wide receivers, but the D and O lines that get hit on every play. Don’t have to be knocked cold to get CTE. My good friend Junior Seau--nicest man you ever met...developed CTE, became violent and shot himself in the chest to die...so they could study his brain--CTE.
Toughness made the difference in this game. Alabama was definitely a better team than OSU. But we were tougher. I mean just look at Jones. He ran through guys. I respect Alabama with all they've done. But nothing was stopping that 2014 OSU team. They were too tough
Just read an article telling The Big Ten to come down south and play when its 98 degrees and 80 percent humidity lol. Got to be kidding me. A conference that plays in ALL weather conditions couldn't take the heat ,omg!
Its 90 plus degrees the whole summer...thats easy to go down south and play because we experience all seasons up here..not sure if they can come up here and perform well in our weather conditions
It is interesting that Alabama had their Center and one Linebacker in this game from Ohio , and perhaps they had more of them from Ohio. If Ohioans are "slow" as they often say, why recruit them?!
That LB was one of the worst on the field for Bama in this game. The center did alright, but his play these past two seasons hasn't knocked anyone's socks off.
Smileyfacedkiller And Saban was born in WV. He's still an SEC coach. Meyer cut his teeth and gained his reputation coaching at Florida, which is why OSU paid him so much to come there. Either way, good luck with your upcoming season.
I’m an Alabama fan and I’ll be the first one to tell you that this Ohio State team was easily the best team in the country. Bama honestly had no business competing for a national title this year with poor QB play and an over reliance on Cooper.
Are you blind? He clearly juggled it, the ball hit the ground, then he scooped it back into his arms. Amazing attempt at a catch but he never secured the ball. The refs have it 100% right.
The evan spencer td pass was the same play they ran in the michigan state game, but spencer kept it and ran for a first down, Only way I would I know that is with all these 30 minute videos. They are awesome! you should do every game like this!
To beat Alabama and Oregon and 59-0 against Wisconsin with a 3rd string QB is INCREDIBLE. in my 48 years I have never seen a 3rd string QB start or win a national championship. To bad OSU didn't give Zeke the ball against MSU because OSU was much better than MSU and OU last year by a long shot just look at the NFL draft next to Miami best class EVER.
The special teams coverage in this game other than one play was immaculate. Some amazing punts and it seemed like almost every kickoff return someone from the kickoff team would just come flying in as soon as the returner came out. Evan Spencer was probably the X factor in this one tbh. Obviously the throw which is probably the best throw I’ve seen from a non QB in football history, but the block on the Zeke run taking out two guys was just nasty work. Also the catch on the onside kick is probably one of the best examples of ball skills; great timing and those hands are strong asl being able to haul that in. I’m a Buckeye fan so I may be biased, but this is definitely a top 3 college football playoff game.
Something I didn't notice the first time I watched this game was how many unusual special teams plays there were. Also, Ohio St has four guys who could win the heisman going into next year and another who could easily win the Chuck Bednarik Award which is pretty crazy
I'm a die hard ducks fan, And you guys where the better team I respect you guys and congratulate you guys on the huge win u had against us. You did us bad, Great season guys. And your having a good one to this season. Great job Bucks! #GoDucks
+Pow Nation In my opinion, had Alabama moved on, they would have beaten the ducks as well. Granted, it would have been pretty close but I just don't see Oregon winning that one.
I didn't see the actual game on TV. First time I have seen the game was this video. From what I read and heard TV analysts saying, I had thought the game was an Ohio State blow out. However, looks to me like this game could have gone either way. Alabama had a chance to tie or win the game at the end. Good game.
Good comment. As an OSU fan, I was nervous practically the entire game so for that reason I thought it could have gone either way. But watching the game live, it seemed like there were several times OSU let Alabama hang when they conceivably could have stepped on their throat. For instance, when they let Bama throw the deep bomb late in the 4th. Didn't happen all game but all of the sudden they give up a huge one at the end? Also, OSU gave Alabama short fields all night while having to go the entire length themselves. I think the general sense at the time was that OSU seemed to completely control the game (both at good times and bad times). They either moved the ball at will or stopped themselves with self-inflicted wounds. In other words, Alabama never really was able to go out there and say, "This is what we do, try and stop it." On the other hand, OSU did that all night. I think Alabama hung in there by capitalizing on OSU mistakes. Granted that's what good teams SHOULD do, but I think that's why it felt like it could have been a blowout if OSU made less mistakes.
KingJugganaut09 Too bad you can't use the English language properly. it would have given your rant more credibility. Its obvious the only college you went to was the college of hard knocks.
I love how if that other returner on the opening kickoff didn't realize it was a live ball. Ohio States's first play would have been a touchdown the second they picked up the ball. (Dear Saban, please work on special teams a bit...)
Austin Oracle you don't have to buy into anything. You can literally watch the play and see lack of discipline from the returner. (On an incredibly basic part of special teams by the way)
As a Buckeye, I hardly remember playing Oregon, but I will never forget Zeke taking it 85 yards "through the heart of the South" and beating the unstoppable Bama.

Also people from Ohio are good people and have manners and respect othet people, more than I can say from where you come from. Have a nice rest of your life with your pitty existence!
Eric S Fisher So true, I live in the south and southern hospitality is pure bullshit. It's fake niceness, people from Ohio and Big Ten country are genuinely NICE people. O-H!
jinkerGM Amen about that "Southern Hospitality". I spent too much time stationed down south, and I couldn't deal with that saccharine-laced crap. It overwhelms a person so much they're liable to be put in a sugar coma if they don't pay attention! Midwesterner's are like oatmeal. We're dull and bland, but pretty damn good for you!
Just like Urban. I love being back in Ohio. Not everybody wants to live under that Manson-Nixon Line.
Jeff Galay I totally agree
Jeff Galay tf is a “religious experience” when watching football
Is anyone here in 2019 comparing this year's team to the National Champion team?
i definitely am. If our Linebackers can cover underneath and cover TE's I see a Natty this year
We look better than everyone this year. So dominant
bluemystic7501 they played nobody yet; oh how impressive they beat Florida Atlantic by 24. wait til they play a football team to say they’ll win it all.
@@mikelee5982 Who said they'd win it all?
bluemystic7501, The first reply said he could see a natty this year, I implied that he just meant they’re gonna win, my apology but I still can’t see a natty just yet, I’ll see one if they beat Wisconsin and Michigan
I bet Bama regrets recruiting Elliott as a DB
let's be honest this was the National Title Game Bucks vs Bama either side was gonna kill Oregon!!! GO BUCKS!!!!
Yeah I highly doubt that. Oregon fucking killed FSU. Oregon got screwd in the National championship game that year.
Patrick Gray imagine beating an team missing like 9 starters
Don't do drugs kids.
Oregon fan here, mad respect to that buckeye team, I’m just glad we didn’t lose to an SEC team again smh..
@@caseyminner3842 wtf r u talking about loser
The only reason this game was even close was because of OSU turnovers and OSU's failure to finish drives. OSU dominated this game.
Whoever #26 was from Bama was or is he probably hopes to never see Cardale coming at him again!!
Wrong. The game was based on runs from both teams. Osu could've easily lost this game had they not gotten key turnovers
Zane Lee
Errn ....
3rd down failures to convert are nott called turnovers, they are called failures to execute and that is an example of a bad team playing a good team.
Bama got trucked !
Not at all what I was mentioning. The turnovers I was referring to were the pick 6 and the int after the bad punt by OSU around their 20. Those plays were the two biggest plays of the game. Both were bad passes by sims and changed the momentum of the game especially the tedzone pick .Honestly you are blind if you really think osu trucked bama.
Zane Lee I am not so blind as not to see the 4 turnovers that went to Bama which kept them in the game at all, and the catch by the Buckeyes that was ruled a none catch. I guess you missed those. Bama got trucked as expressed by all the networks, I guess you missed that also. To bad Tider, you couldn't talk your way into a title ..... again.
And OSU was supposed to get *trampled* in this game....hmmmm...lol
They are praying they don't have to face us again. It upends the "SEC is the best" narrative
D H SEC is best NFL proves it
we didn't get trampled or slaughtered compared to the last time we faced them in the semi playoff. That was terrible and humiliating as a buckeye we came so far not but not close enough. Til next year we'll see what happens
Trampled like Norte Dame? 😭
In 2002, OSU was supposed to not score a single point and the next title they win, they were not even supposed to make it out of the playoff game...
So glad we beat Bama. Was tired of the media hanging on their nuts.
Beat Alabama more and you wont have that problem, really you should be pissed at all the teams that lose to Alabama.
+Allamericanlibertarian Okay? The media acting as if they're unbeatable was annoying. Buckeyes ran all of them country boys.
yea especially the one "experet analyst" who said there was no point in playing bama was going to win the championship.
+Eric Collins Yup. Only Lou Holtz picked us.

Six months later... and I STILL love watching this! What an outstanding game between two all-time great teams!
Almost 5 years later and this is one of the greatest games Ive ever seen
June 2023 and this is an all time classic game. You got a bit of everything here
I'm a Florida fan and usually root for the SEC in non-conference games, but watching Urban Meyer get his revenge on Nick Saban by outcoaching him to another National Championship (with his third-string quarterback) is freakin' outstanding. I'm ready for the season to start! - Go Gators!!
+Franc Davis Urban didn't win by simply outcoaching Saban. He won by having the better team on his side. He's one of the best coaches out there, but it's pretty hard to win by outcoaching someone like Saban. Ohio State just had better football players. Even a mediocre or slightly above average coach could have pulled this win out. The only reason it was close was because of OSU's failure to finish drives, horrible field position, stupid turnovers and not to mention, some huge missed calls. You don't comeback down 21-6 by beating a superior team. Doesn't happen.
@@alexdelagrange2140 Outcoaching doesn't mean winning team is inferior. It's how pro games are won since the talent is so much closer. Good teams still blow out better teams, because a corner is burned in cover 3 by being outschemed with a hi lo means TD. Or a deep middle post split the safeties (which happened for a TD in this game) Its unreal the amount of sensitivity of CFB fans, you can't even praise a coaching job without getting someone upset.
That catch in the 2nd quarter touchdown by Michael Thomas made him a legend
Still not tired of watching this game go buckeyes!
@sharkk 88 I watched Bama beat Ohio State in the mid 90's. Bowl game. Remember it well.
@Myles Durham I wish Ohio state would play Alabama again Alabama would whip Ohio state at football naked
lloyd kline it's sad when you still have a chip on your shoulder for something that happened 4 years ago
Hope Alabama has a rematch with Ohio state different outcome
@@lloydkline3265 lol bama couldn't even beat auburn or lsu gtfoh
First time I've re-watched this game since I was in NOLA; such a tough loss. A lot of people blame Blake for his struggles, or Kiffin for not running the ball enough. Personally I think most of the responsibility for the loss falls on the defense, 35 points should be enough to win a game if we want to be considered elite defensively. Either way, great game, congrats Buckeyes. All the OSU fans I came in contact with in NOLA were really pleasant people, it was nice to see so much mutual respect between two great programs.
cameronstate Could be that Nick Saban is paying more attention to his offense and not the defense like in previous years. Saban used to be involved in the defense almost entirely, now he is focused more on the offense with Lane Kiffin.
+cameronstate thank you for not being a classless SEC-chode and placing blame for the loss on everyone else. you're honest to god one of the first Bama fans I've seen that would actually admit the fault lies with Bama's D, and not the fact that "you guys won because Elliott's jersey was tucked under his pads and we couldn't tackle him..."(dead serious excuse I heard). it doesn't hurt me to say that Bama will be back, I wouldn't worry about this game. next year may be a "rebuilding" year, but think about this: THIS was supposed to be OUR "rebuilding" year..... and look what happened.
Finally, an SEC fan that isn't an asshole. (I know plenty from other conferences just SEC fans always seem to be a little ridiculous) someone that actually has respect for football, and understands the game.
Yeah. Ohio State was the best team in the country that season. Bama had no shot at a title with Blake Sims under center.
L
Fun as hell watching by far the two strongest programs in the last decade go at it.
You're confused. Although Alabama was in this game, Clemson was not.
@@intendedconsequences5758 Ohio State eat Clemson's lunch. The reversal from the political 'upstairs' of the fumble was the game changer.
Might be the two strongest programs historically
I STILL get nervous watching this! What a great game! GO BUCKS!!
Same lol
I love the OSU punter, I love OSU, but Alabama's punter really kept them in this game. He was crazy good
That's actually not a bad statement (saying this in case your being sarcastic) he had a lot of amazing punts and this would of been a shitty game for Alabama if it wasn't for him.
@@thomaspaulgames77 I mean it was a shitty game for them if not for the mistakes early on in the game they let AL score from 25 yds out on the turnovers.
Zeke became a legend on this night
Amazing how many future pros were on that field. Michael Thomas' TD catch just before halftime was probably the play of the game. And Bama wasn't prepared for Cardale as a runner.
That was the best catch I think I have ever seen by Spencer towards the end of the 2nd quarter, awesome just awesome!!! that is all that is needed to explain that catch.
Who's here after Ohio State beat Clemson!!
I'm so glad the Buckeyes beat Bama and won the national Championship proud to be a Buckeye Fan!!
@Shadowkirby83 Disappointed in that loss we’ll learn from it and hopefully come back to the championship game
52-24
This is routinely suggested to me and I watch it every time. So satisfying
This OSU Team was my favorite while growing up and its good to see lots of these players in the NFL
As much as I hate Ohio State there is nothing more satisfying than watching Alabama lose.
VersionBest I can respect that
VersionBest I like Ohio state cuz I live in Columbus but that is true.
True I agree
probably caus your team sucks and will never be as good as Alabama.
*A-FUCKING-MEN!!!!!*
I'm an Irish alum, so it's my duty to despise USCum above all others, but I've hated BAMA since I was a child.
Ahhh, the day that Bama fans got proven wrong but then the excuses started as to why the "overrated, non deserving" Ohio State Buckeyes beat the almighty SEC gods.
just like the "Alabama only won the 2016 playoffs because they didnt have to play Ohio St." excuse?
+Allamericanlibertarian just like how derrick henry won the Heisman because he's a good player but the minute you don't let him run Forrest Gump straight he sucks?
+Allamericanlibertarian or just like how blake sims sucks so bad he had to flee to Canada to play ball? or like how Nick Saban abuses running backs so much they have no chance in the NFL because a bet MR so much deserving Heisman himself flops in the NFL. That running back from Stanford by the name of McCaffrey is 10 better than henry is. But since henry played for the almighty Alabama red water (I'd rather be a nut that water as a mascot) he "won" it.
Well, think about that one. Without the Buckeyes, who did Alabama have to go through? But we have recent history to refer to. The SEC doesn't because they're too chicken to play in hostile territory.
Give them a break, at least folks down in Alabama don't make excuses for losing to the Union anymore.
Please do more of these. Perfect way to enjoy the game again in quick order.
This game was probably the most satisfying win in my lifetime as an Ohio State fan, and it all boils down to how much I respect the Alabama Crimson Tide football program. The Tide have been the gold standard of college football over the last 10 years and it was extremely satisfying to knock them off on the way to winning a football national championship. Ultimately, I'll look at the following year as the biggest football rematch of all time that never happened, as OSU returned virtually all of their core players from the championship team however Bama came back to win it after that disappointing loss to MSU.
In today's football hierarchy, it feels like it's Bama, Ohio State, Clemson, and everybody else when it comes to perennial success at the highest level... although Georgia has a chance to join the other three given that they play in the SEC which gives them "street cred" but are also out of the SEC East which is a division that they have a chance to really dominate going forward if they're able to capitalize from last seasons success. UGA has always felt like a program that's ready to ascend to the next level by instilling a little bit more discipline, team mentality and motivation in their players since they've routinely pulled in some of the top blue-chip players and in decent numbers for awhile now.
Respect
Thank you Drew for the great editing. Decided to take a look back. What a game. 2 GREAT programs going at it!
As an Ohio State fan the biggest factor for our success in this game was Derrick Henry not getting nearly enough touches.
You are the most logical OSU fan. I can respect you.
Cardale Jones has the strongest arm I have seen in recent memory. This game was one of the best I have seen, the atmosphere was surreal.
Kiran Shanker see the pass of 50 yards . Wow
Timothy Bowling Cardale’s running was the biggest game changer. You could tell he was wearing down the Alabama defense. He was dishing out a lot of punishment lowering the shoulder.
Classic game ...2 sledgehammers going against each other. This game had it all and was fun to watch. So much NFL talent on both sides.
Looking back at this, it’s insane how many pro bowlers were on the field that night. Helluva battle.
whos watching this game waiting for the natty GO BUCKS
Trying to get hyped up for the rematch!
lmao

Yeah, OSU never stood a chance. Not a Bama fan, but they're in a whole different league.
@@thecrown_jul 42-35...giggles!!
The Frog has watched this game soo many times~ - Thanks for the video. Chills every time Zeke takes it To The House in the 4th~!
Referees also had another call wrong, when Buckeye Evan Spencer caught a long pass from Cardale Jones at 1:05 minutes in this video. It was a completed pass but they called it incomplete
eh, coulda gone either way. The angle shown isn't a good one, I was there and I have no idea if he had possession or not
Andy Bravo I agree...BUT normally when a pass is incomplete, it looks "more and more incomplete" as I see it more and more. The more I see that Spencer incomplete pass, the more and more I think that is was a completed pass. I really believe that if the refs would have called it complete in the beginning, that video evidence wouldn't have been able to overturn it.
the ball hit the ground..in another angle that this video doesnt show you can clearly see the ball on the ground
Zack Jalamani I spoke with the refs and they asked that only people who have uploaded profile photos comment about their calls.
Zack Jalamani Just kidding haha.
I never get tired of watching this game. Watching Ohio State outhit, outjump, out run, out physical, outsmart, and just flat out out play Alabama was a treat. The smug Alabama fans have no respect for Ohio State, and the Big 10 for that matter, and to watch us beat the pride of Alabama/SEC, right in their own backyard, was something special. They never in a million years thought they'd see their team get beat up like that.
Why not. Ohio State is 2-12 against the SEC in bowl games. Clemson is 4-1 against Ohio State.
@@nedstewart1 Well, at least we got 3 wins!! I'll take em. Cant say we cant beat you!!
@@klaws32 2-13 now. SEC just tooo much for the Bucks. Georgia is the new Alabama.
@@nedstewart1 we played Georgia tough, probably should have won. Beat Alabama once, lost once. Beat Arkansas when they had a good team. 2 and 2 since 2010, we can hang with them now, our team since Meyer was here in 2012 is built different, specifically to compete with the SEC. I know SEC , the top 2 teams in any given year, are usually the 2 best teams in the country, i wont dispute that, but they can be beat occasionally, and we have the team to do it. You have to have an explosive, pass heavy offense, and team speed on defense. We have both, our defense really took a nose dive the last couple years, but its being addressed, it will be much better this year, just wait and see. The top 2 teams in the SEC are hard to beat, the rest on any given year are not much better than other conferences.
@@klaws32 Ohio State is better since Meyer and Tressel no doubt. Nothing stays permeant in college football. Florida State, and Nebraska had quite a run and were declared as Dynasties by the NCAA. Ohio State might be named a Dynasty if they can fix their defense. FSU was in the same shape with their offensive line as Ohio State's Defense and as a result became a mediocre team. Same thing sooner or later will happen to the Bucks. No one stays on top.
Goodness I didn’t realize how many times Jalin’s helmet came off in this game lol... what a game though. Still my favorite OSU game of all time!
He took a beating and kept on goin . His catches over the middle were almost painful to watch .
SEC fans reaction: "But Tennessee beat Iowa"
Big Ten fans reaction: "We'll take the wins over Alabama and Auburn"
Sec has Iowa and Minnesota and Wisconsin.... Oh yeah and look where Iowa is now, undefeated...
I need these sweet memories more than ever now with what Alabama has become.
GO BUCKS!!!
Let me say that this was a bittersweet game. May family is from Alabama, so I grew up a HUGE Tide fan. But I was born and raised in the midwest and went to Purdue (obviously). So, while I was disappointed in the results, the B1G fan in me was happy and proud to see tOSU do it's thing.
This Buckeye team was excellent! Now look at the 2019 team!
Oh I'm pretty sure if we actually played against Alabama that would have been a good game.
Dude thanks for making these kinds of videos!
Alabama fans before the Sugar Bowl: "Blake Simms is one of the smartest, most efficient, most resilient QB we've ever had. he makes this team amazing.
"Alabama fans *after* the Sugar Bowl: "Blake Simms is easily the worst QB we've ever had. he has no business being our QB, he has always sucked and HE is why we lost."
you kids are priceless.
+Ohio Against The World Yeah, just like how they all talked their team up and once they lost it became "one of the worst TEAMS we've ever had". They are pathetic.
+Ohio Against The World Anyone watching from a non-bias POV would of known Blake Sims isn't good. Smartest, most efficient? Hell no, the dude throws interceptions like he thinks the defense is his team and that's why he is in the CFL. See you guys in the Fiesta Bowl :).
What an ignorant comment. No one said a damn thing about Sims after Bama lost. Every Bama fan respects him; he was a nobody before Kiffin molded him into a star. All I heard was how surprised we as a fanbase felt after losing to a team we didn't think was that good.
yes, they did. do you account for "every Bama fan"? I don't assume to know all the excuses everyone gave after OSU lost by a whole 3 points. I saw a lot more excuses than surprise after OSU won last year.
+Ohio Against The World No, I don't account for every fan. But generally speaking, Sims was very well respected as a player among the students. No rational fan would ever call a quarterback who set the single season passing yards record a bad player.
Devin Smith, OSU's greatest wide receiver, maybe ever !
No. Cris Carter, MIke Thomas, and a few others are ahead of him. D. Smith did one thing better than any OSU WR has, and that's catch the deep ball.
Should of been a rematch this year between these two
That 2015 team was Special. They put 42 pts on Alabama the tore the Ducks Oregon to Win the National title. The game last nite showed the BACKBONE & ENDURANCE. That Elliott run was one for the records. 🏆
A Third String QB, A Running Back cast on one hand...AMAZING!
(18:50) was the defining moment of the game and it completely changed everyone's fate. When a defensive linemen intercepts the ball for a return touchdown in a very tight game,, it changes the momentum of the game for good. Terrible decision by Sims, it was 27-21 and Nick Saban likes playing a conservative game...throw the ball where only your WRs can catch it. That single play energized OSU's defensive, eased pressure on OSU's offense, built lots of pressure on Alabama's offense and demoralized Alabama's defense who was playing okay prior to that play. It gave Ohio St a double digit lead and the confidence and inspiration to secure a win that night.
OK Bama, you're up 21 - 6 with 3 minutes remaining in the first half .... Then you got trucked.
Yes
Randynichols
Nah they lost by 7. Pretty respectable too me. My definition of trucked is what happened on Monday. 52-24 is trucked, not 42-35.
@Greg Carver no shit. This game was far from a trucking.
Wow this was a lot closer than I remember. Great game by both teams!
***** Yeah. I just looked up the game again and I forgot Alabama was up 21-6 and then the Buckeyes won 42-35. Buckeye fans can act like they're Kirk Herbstreit all they want, but it really was close haha. 42-35 = 7. "It's not always about the score." Ok.
***** Yeah. It was a great 4th quarter for sure. Can't wait for the new season to start. I think the chances are low that Ohio State or Alabama lose in game one. I know Ohio State has that Monday night game, and it's away, but I'd be surprised if OSU loses.
***** Wow Auburn begins with Louisville, then an easy one with Jacksonville State, but then they go to LSU and back home with Mississippi State. That’d be amazing if they come out of that run 4-0.
***** I think Alabama either wins it all this year, or they lose 3-4 games. I don't think this will be another year with 1-2 losses.
+Douglas A. Benefield - "ignored by suckeyes."
seriously? coming from the fanebase whom %80 of pretends like this game never happened? and overlooking the fact that we were playing with a 3rd-string QB? lol c'mon, guys.

What's amazing is all the players in that game that are in the NFL, both teams were stacked
I'm amazed at how bad Trey DePriest looked. This is a kid that was seen as one of the best Ohio LB products to come out in years and there he was looking like a very out of shape nose guard. Not only did he look bad from a size perspective but if you just lock your eyes on him during play, he looks lost. He's always hopping around back there and sort of just moving around aimlessly.
i think he is too big to be a LB against the spread offense. He should've been playing on the D-Line.
make739 so i guess what your saying is bench him?
make739 not fast enough for the B1G speed
make739 interesting comment. strange that the dude started since at least a sophomore and maybe even a few games as a freshman. What's that say about the other LBs on the team?
make739 he is from ohio… not the B1G. He's from the SEC. You would think 4 years with the king of the sec would do a little something?
Ohio States w Urban Meyer beats ‘Bama w Nick Saban. These two coaches fought each other--Gators vs ‘Bama back in the days of Tim Tebow.
Ohio is where I was born and lived to age 16 (Before moving to Utah--no I’m not Mormon.) so loving OSU! I got my undergrad and post grad classes at Univ of Utah. Then moved to Hawai’i in 1985.
2008--Hawai’i was slaughtered by the Crimson Tide in the Sugar Bowl...Most of us from HI were wearing slippahs (what you call flip-flops) and most were COLD. I had lived in Utah and had the requisite warm ski gear. An Hawai’ian neighbor said “I didn’t know snow and ice were so cold!” Well weather in HI is perfect--no snow or even cold weather. Never gets above 100 and never dips below 68.
Jan, 2009--Utah Utes coached by Kyle Whittingham (who had been under Urban Meyer for 10 years as a defensive coordinator) became head coach when Meyer left in 2004 to go to Florida. The Utah Utes BEAT Nick Saban’s Crimson Tide 31-17...and it wasn’t close. Every time an Alabama fan sees me here in Atlanta, GA with my “Go Utes” license plate, they ALWAYS come up and make an excuse--“Oh we were tired from the SEC championship game.! One ‘Bama fan simply said “Utah was so much better! We were awful.”
Urban Meyer made Utah a great team. We had no losses in three years and YET we were never named #1! Even in 2009 we ended up 12-0 vs “Bama’s 12-1. Yet they finished ahead of use in polls! Utes went from Western Athletic Conference (WAC) to MWC (Mountain West Conf) then onto the PAC-12 where we hold our own. Urban started at Bowling Green, OH where he was a special unit coach. Like Saban they both HATE mistakes as was seen here in this game!
Meyer retired this year from his $7.6 million salary and multiple perks--own private plane, Golf club membership at one of Columbus’ best courses. to become an assistant head of OSU for $100K per year. (He’ll go nuts!) Jack Nicklaus went to OSU and all the courses esp the Scarlet and the Gray are superb courses. Nicklaus renovated both at no charge.
Saban makes $7.5 million/yr and $400,000 increase each year PLUS substantial bonuses.
In every state the highest paid salaries go to football and hoops coaches! Patently bizarre considering that the athletes get zip! Oh sure a free 4 year Bachelor’s--but finding time to go to class, study, and write papers is second to travel, memorizing the playbooks and two a day practices. College ball is a multi-billion dollar business. TIME TO PAY THE PLAYERS. Major League baseball has Rookie league, Single A to Trlple A...then The Show. Not football. Their “minor leagues” are college football and the NFL doesn’t pay a dime.
No big salary to the deans of medical school or head epidemiologists at public health. Not the head economist that helps the governor and mayors with budgets. Heck the President of the US only makes $400K/yr--with unlimited time on AF1, and Marine One helicopters. Goes everywhere in a 13 car “parade” including an ambulance. The “Beast” the heavy armored personal car carries two bags of type-specific blood for the prez.
Actually it’s time to end all American football. Too many head injuries resulting in CTE...one of the largest studies on the subject to date finds that 110 out of 111 deceased NFL players had chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), a degenerative brain disorder associated with repetitive head trauma.
Overall 87% of football players WILL get CTE! We turned Boxing into a nothing sport because the aim of boxing is to knock the guy out! That’s SEVERE damage to the brain!!
The players with the worst CTE are NOT the wide receivers, but the D and O lines that get hit on every play. Don’t have to be knocked cold to get CTE.
My good friend Junior Seau--nicest man you ever met...developed CTE, became violent and shot himself in the chest to die...so they could study his brain--CTE.
Cardale Jones is just a tank when he runs hes got that big physical body that allows him to be able to run hard like that and be hard to take down
Love your 30-min. games. Great work.

Speaking of couldn't take the heat
Lmfao what an embarrassing championship game.
21:52 I don't know if anyone agrees, but to me that's pass interference.
It is interesting that Alabama had their Center and one Linebacker in this game from Ohio , and perhaps they had more of them from Ohio. If Ohioans are "slow" as they often say, why recruit them?!
That LB was one of the worst on the field for Bama in this game. The center did alright, but his play these past two seasons hasn't knocked anyone's socks off.
they must not know which ohioans to get… OSU knows...
It took an SEC coach to know which ones to get and recruit. The prior elite Ohio athletes were good for back to back national title losses.
Smileyfacedkiller And Saban was born in WV. He's still an SEC coach. Meyer cut his teeth and gained his reputation coaching at Florida, which is why OSU paid him so much to come there. Either way, good luck with your upcoming season.
marktastic86 just because meyer made the sec who they are today doesn't mean he's southern. do you know anything about him?
I’m an Alabama fan and I’ll be the first one to tell you that this Ohio State team was easily the best team in the country. Bama honestly had no business competing for a national title this year with poor QB play and an over reliance on Cooper.
Fake fan spotted.
I am a alabama fan and I still think he caught that at 1:07
Are you blind? He clearly juggled it, the ball hit the ground, then he scooped it back into his arms. Amazing attempt at a catch but he never secured the ball. The refs have it 100% right.
The evan spencer td pass was the same play they ran in the michigan state game, but spencer kept it and ran for a first down, Only way I would I know that is with all these 30 minute videos. They are awesome! you should do every game like this!
27:51 that was a fumble and game over there. Bama got away with one but the Buckeyes still won!
Thanks for posting. First time seeing the game.
To beat Alabama and Oregon and 59-0 against Wisconsin with a 3rd string QB is INCREDIBLE. in my 48 years I have never seen a 3rd string QB start or win a national championship. To bad OSU didn't give Zeke the ball against MSU because OSU was much better than MSU and OU last year by a long shot just look at the NFL draft next to Miami best class EVER.
The special teams coverage in this game other than one play was immaculate. Some amazing punts and it seemed like almost every kickoff return someone from the kickoff team would just come flying in as soon as the returner came out. Evan Spencer was probably the X factor in this one tbh. Obviously the throw which is probably the best throw I’ve seen from a non QB in football history, but the block on the Zeke run taking out two guys was just nasty work. Also the catch on the onside kick is probably one of the best examples of ball skills; great timing and those hands are strong asl being able to haul that in. I’m a Buckeye fan so I may be biased, but this is definitely a top 3 college football playoff game.
Henry to Blake Sims @ 14:00 - "Where you going dawg?"
No matter who would have won the game, this was the most exciting game I ever saw. Respect to Alabama. But go Buckeyes
Alabama's punter kept them in the game
So did their O Lineman #74 guy killed it all night
Something I didn't notice the first time I watched this game was how many unusual special teams plays there were. Also, Ohio St has four guys who could win the heisman going into next year and another who could easily win the Chuck Bednarik Award which is pretty crazy
22:33 those dudes were right, they were okay. The very next play was an int lol
That is right!! I thought they were a bit nuts saying that. But we know each play can change the complexion of the game. Go Bucks!!
I'm a die hard ducks fan, And you guys where the better team I respect you guys and congratulate you guys on the huge win u had against us. You did us bad, Great season guys. And your having a good one to this season. Great job Bucks!

+Pow Nation In my opinion, had Alabama moved on, they would have beaten the ducks as well. Granted, it would have been pretty close but I just don't see Oregon winning that one.
13:59 Blake Sims runs the wrong way after the kneel down to end the half
Can someone explain why they spotted the ball on the 2 yard line at 7:18? Looked like a clean safety?
Who back in 2021 Go buckeyes ‼️
Roll tide Roll!
I know how the game ends and it still makes me nervous. --- Great game, thanks for the upload. ---
I didn't see the actual game on TV. First time I have seen the game was this video. From what I read and heard TV analysts saying, I had thought the game was an Ohio State blow out. However, looks to me like this game could have gone either way. Alabama had a chance to tie or win the game at the end. Good game.
Good comment. As an OSU fan, I was nervous practically the entire game so for that reason I thought it could have gone either way. But watching the game live, it seemed like there were several times OSU let Alabama hang when they conceivably could have stepped on their throat. For instance, when they let Bama throw the deep bomb late in the 4th. Didn't happen all game but all of the sudden they give up a huge one at the end? Also, OSU gave Alabama short fields all night while having to go the entire length themselves. I think the general sense at the time was that OSU seemed to completely control the game (both at good times and bad times). They either moved the ball at will or stopped themselves with self-inflicted wounds. In other words, Alabama never really was able to go out there and say, "This is what we do, try and stop it." On the other hand, OSU did that all night. I think Alabama hung in there by capitalizing on OSU mistakes. Granted that's what good teams SHOULD do, but I think that's why it felt like it could have been a blowout if OSU made less mistakes.
Considering Ohio State was down by two touchdowns and OSU came back it was.

This from a PSU fan. Talk about wussies.
KingJugganaut09 Too bad you can't use the English language properly. it would have given your rant more credibility. Its obvious the only college you went to was the college of hard knocks.
jorge busch you crying still you cry baby!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I was going ot rewatch this and the Oregon champ game in full but this saved a lot of time ; yet still captures the ebb and flow of a full game imho
I love how if that other returner on the opening kickoff didn't realize it was a live ball. Ohio States's first play would have been a touchdown the second they picked up the ball. (Dear Saban, please work on special teams a bit...)
Since it was touched the Buckeyes could've just bowled that returner out of the way and recovered the ball for the TD. Poor play by both squads.
Red Quasar considering special teams was a huge part of alabamas championships i dont buy it
Austin Oracle you don't have to buy into anything. You can literally watch the play and see lack of discipline from the returner. (On an incredibly basic part of special teams by the way)
Glad I'm not the only one who noticed that.
I'm pretty sure that opening kick is a live ball after the initial returner drops it.
