Bo Scarbrough has his second touchdown of the game, as he ripped off a 37-yard run in the second quarter of Monday's national championship game to double Alabama's lead over Clemson to 14-0.

The bruising running back opened the scoring with a 25-yard touchdown dash in the first quarter.

Scarbrough's second touchdown made him the second player with multiple rushing TDs in the first half of a national championship game since the introduction of the BCS system in 1998. The other player was Scarbrough's predecessor at Alabama, Derrick Henry.
