Florida spots Ohio State a touchdown on the opening kickoff and then annihilates the heavily favored Buckeyes, 41-14, to win the BCS national championship at Cardinals Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Gators quarterback Chris Leak outplays his Heisman Trophy-winning counterpart, Troy Smith of OSU. Ironically, the Buckeyes help beat themselves when All-American wide receiver Ted Ginn Jr. suffers a twisted ankle in the wild celebration after his game-opening kickoff return TD and misses the rest of the game. It’s the second national football title for Florida (1996), and the Gators become the only school to be national champs in football and basketball simultaneously.
