Jack Sawyer Cements Himself As Ohio State Legend As Buckeyes Advance to College Football Playoff National Championship Game

It's a full-circle moment that Ohio State will be playing for a national championship after a magical three-game run through the College Football Playoff, but it can be full circle for no man more than Jack Sawyer.

No Ohio State player took it more personally than the Central Ohio native that his class failed to beat Michigan four straight years. He should have had a full-circle moment with a game-saving interception in the fourth quarter against that very Wolverine team on Nov. 30, only for the Buckeyes to ultimately still lose.

Now, if Ohio State goes on and wins a national title, his legacy will be the 83-yard game-sealing scoop-and-score that captured a 28-14 win for the Buckeyes over Texas in the College Football Playoff semifinal.
