The Heisman winner Troy Smith of Ohio State and his fellow Buckeyes were thrashed, 41-14, by Florida in the BCS National Championship. The game started well for Ohio State with Ted Ginn Jr. returning the opening kick 93 yards for a TD. It was downhill from there. Smith was 4-of-14 for 35 yards passing with an interception and had 10 carries for minus-29 yards when sacks were factored.
