Where do you go from here as most had the Ducks or 'Noles playing the Mighty Roll Tide for the first-ever College Football Championship. Well after two games covering some nine hours of time the Oregon Ducks and Ohio State Buckeyes are making arrangement for Dallas, Texas for a January 12, 2015 match up in Jerry's World in Arlington, Texas.

#2 #QuackAttack 59 #3 #Noles 20 F

The Quack Attack Eugene did it the old-fashion way as they torched a FSU 'Noles Bunch 59-20. They also did it with that explosive offense and a myriad of turnovers from FSU that the Ducks converted into 7's not 3's.

Oregon ran up 639 yards of total offense and 338 of that in the air. Heisman Winner Ducks QB Marcus Mariota was 26 for 36 for 338 yards and two TD's and an INT. What was more impressive that Ducks ground game running up some 301 yards led by Thomas Tyner's 124 yards on just 13 carries. FSU's "D" couldn't not figure out that Ducks Offense and they paid for it on nearly every series.

#1 #RollTide 35 #4 #Buckeyes 42 F

Yes the "Urban Legend" is alive and well and the 'Bama Nation knows Mr. Meyer all too well from his Swamp Days. The Buckeyes simply took it right to 'Bama after trailing 21-6 early in the 2nd frame. The out scored 'Bama 36-14 in a shocking change of events. Those events really changed right before the half when the Buckeyes scored with just :12 seconds on the clock calling a 6-play 77-yard drive right before break.

'Bama went for way too many home runs when all they had to do was grind it out and keep the ball on the ground. Ohio State QB Cardale Jones was magnificent throwing for 243 yards and running for 43 yards.

The night though belonged to Ohio State RB Ezekial Elliott who put $2.30 on that 'Bama Run "D" on twenty carries including the back breaking 85 yarder late in the 4th for pay dirt.

Roll Tide QB Blake Sims threw three INT's and he O-Coordinator Lane Kiffin were looking a bit too cute as sometimes less is best. 'Bama RB's Derrick Henry and T.J. Yeldon rushed 23 times for 142 yards when that could have been way more but they chose to throw it more in an 'Bama Panic Mode you never see.

Congrats to Bucks and Ducks Nation and see you in Jerry's World next weekend!
