Ohio State's Jalin Marshall undecided on National Football League decision

Sunny Arizona will begin the new year on Friday with the BattleFrog Fiesta Bowl kicking off before noon in Glendale at University of Phoenix Stadium. He had a superb final season, rushing for 1,672 yards and 19 touchdowns, and will want to go out with a bang in the Fiesta Bowl. And now Notre Dame has the support of an orangutan, too.

Ohio State finished No. 7 in the final CFB rankings. He said he's happy at Ohio State, but he has to take the National Football League into consideration.

IRISH RETURING: Notre Dame had a long string of injuries, including several to key players. J.T. Barrett completed 63.8 percent of his passes for 1,460 yards and eight touchdowns against five interceptions. DeShone Kizer scored on a two-yard run with 30 seconds remaining to give the Irish a 36-35 lead, but Kevin Hogan led the Cardinal down the field to set up Conrad Ukropina for the game-winning, 45-yard field goal.

The Buckeyes and Fighting Irish are meeting as top-10 teams for the third straight time; the others were 2006 and 1996.... Notre Dame's Romeo Okwara has eight sacks.... Urban Meyer is searching for his 10th postseason win as he now stands 9-2 in bowl games. Notre Dame is 17-17 in bowl games, appearing in 16 different bowls.

Get ready for the 2016 Fiesta Bowl that has a start time one hour later than the Outback Bowl.
