Live updates from the College Football Playoff championship game between Alabama and Clemson from Santa Clara, California:
Clemson gets its offense rolling
Trevor Lawrence looked shaky early which is understandable for a true freshman. But he soon made his mark on the game with a laser strike to Tee Higgins for 62 yards on a third-and-14. Travis Etienne then went around left end for a 17-yard touchdown on the next play and the Tigers are up 14-7 with less than five minutes gone in the first quarter.
And Alabama quickly responds
Tua Tagovailoa didn't let an interception returned for a touchdown get him down.
