MOBILE, Ala. (WALA) - Mobile's AJ McCarron threw four touchdowns in Monday night's BCS National Championship, leading Alabama to its third national title in four years.

The Tide (13-1, 7-1 SEC) defeated Notre Dame (12-1) 42-14 Monday night in Sun Life Stadium in Miami, Florida.

Freshman Amari Cooper surpassed the 1000-yard mark for the season in the game, catching a pair of touchdowns.

Daphne's TJ Yeldon had more than 100 yards and a touchdown Monday night, the fifth 100-plus yard effort in just his freshman season.

The championship is number 15 for Alabama.
