ARLINGTON, Texas -- You may have noticed the second "O" flag in Ohio was missing when the Buckeyes took the field at the national championship game on Monday.

That's because things got a little crazy when the fireworks went off and Ohio State cheerleader Ally Nelson got ran over, but thankfully she wasn't hurt.

"There was just a miscommunication and that's really what got it all started," she told FOX Sports Southwest. "That last flag just kind of tripped us all up. I managed to crawl out and I'm fine. I got stepped on a little bit, but I'm OK."

She didn't miss a moment of the game and left smiling after Ohio State beat Oregon for the national title.
