Ohio State coach Urban Meyer comments on his team's victory over Oregon in the College Football Playoff National Championship presented by AT&T. (1:02)

If he lives up to his promise, Urban Meyer will get more than a ring for leading the Ohio State Buckeyes to a national championship -- his third as a coach.

Meyer's promise was written in ink.

"He promised us after we beat Bama in the locker room that, if we won the next one, he'd get a tattoo," tight end Jeff Heuerman told USA Today Sports after the Buckeyes' 42-20 victory over Oregon in the College Football Playoff National Championship presented by AT&T.

"I'll supervise it," Heuerman added. "Trust me. I'm going to be right next to him. The first thing that went through my head is, 'Coach Meyer's getting a tattoo.'"
