Ohio State held its highly anticipated championship celebration Saturday morning at Ohio Stadium in front of thousands of pumped up Buckeyes fans.

Ohio State, the Big Ten champions, took down then-No. 1 Alabama in the Sugar Bowl in the semifinals, and then drilled then-No. 2 Oregon in the inaugural College Football Playoff National Championship Game.

The Buckeyes finished the memorable season 14-1, with the lone loss coming in Week 2.
