The Cincinnati Bengals are heading to the Super Bowl, and a couple of Ohio State stars came up clutch in the AFC Championship Game.

First, it was Sam Hubbard securing a key sack at the end of regulation. His sack kept Pat Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs out of the end zone with the Chiefs kicking a game-tying field goal as time expired.

In the overtime period, the Bengals would up on the wrong side of the coin flip. Instead, Kansas City started overtime with the ball, but Mahomes would turn it over.

On 3rd-and-10, Mahomes took a deep shot, but a deflected pass found its way to Vonn Bell. That gave Cincinnati the ball with a chance to win the game.

Joe Burrow guided the offense slowly down the field before Evan McPherson kicked a walk-off field goal from close range. Now, Cincinnati will head to the Super Bowl to face the winner of Sunday night’s NFC Championship Game.
