The celebrations continued for the Buckeyes' 2014 national championship team Saturday afternoon.

Ten years after Ohio State won the national championship in the inaugural College Football Playoff, Urban Meyer and a bunch of former Buckeyes from that team gathered back in Columbus for a 10th-anniversary celebration that culminated in an on-field celebration during the first half of OSU's game against Nebraska. Saturday's celebration concluded with the team lifting Meyer into the air before exiting the field.

"To be in your home state, I'm from northeast Ohio, to look up there and see the 2014 (sign hanging in Ohio Stadium) and share it with guys you love in the most improbable national championship with a third-string quarterback," Meyer said during halftime. "That team was so good. There are still guys 10 years-plus in the NFL. That's how good that team was. That's one of the great teams in college football history."

The 10th-anniversary celebration began Thursday night, with Meyer hosting the Big Noon Kickoff crew and members of the 2014 national title team at Urban Meyer's Pint House in Dublin.

It continued Saturday morning on Big Noon Kickoff, with members of the team joining Meyer and the crew on set.
