Here we go again! The Ohio State Buckeyes will take on the Alabama Crimson Tide for the national championship. The Buckeyes head into the game with an offense clicking on all cylinders, while the Alabama machine just keeps on chugging.

Against the two top tier offenses the Crimson Tide played, the average points given up was a whopping 47. The Buckeyes can put up points, but before we get to that later this week, let’s break down Alabama and what you need to know.
