Rutledge, the Miller-Digby honoree, hit 8-of-11 passes for 103 yards and two touchdowns as Alabama, ranked No. 2, moved to a 21-0 lead through three periods.

Major Ogilvie and Johnny Davis blew it open with successive fourth-period touchdowns after Ohio State had pulled to within 21-6 on Rodney Gerald's 38-yard pass to Jim Harrell.
