LSU Defeats OSU to Win College Football National Championship

New Orleans was the place to be last night...if you are a Louisiana State Tigers fan. The Tigers defeated the Ohio State Buckeyes 38-24 last night to win the Bowl Championship Series title. LSU became the first two-loss (both in overtime) team to win the title and also became the fist team in the BCS era (started in1998) to win the BCS championship twice (USC's 2003 national championship was from the AP, not from the BCS).

Ohio State accumulated seven penalties. Five of those were personal fouls (15 yards each and automatic first downs). The Buckeyes are now 0-9 in bowl games against the SEC.

Geaux Tigers.
