Alabama has beat Clemson 45-40 Monday night in the College Football National Playoff Championship in Glendale, Arizona.

The teams were tied for much of the game, entering halftime with a score of 14-14. Alabama pulled ahead shortly into the third quarter, then South Carolina's Clemson scored twice, securing a 24-21 lead.

Clemson continued to lead at the end of the third quarter, but in the final few minutes of the game Alabama started to change that and Kenyon Drake scored on the kickoff, securing Alabama with a 38-27 lead.
