ATLANTA — Alabama is heading back to the national championship game. Bo Scarbrough and another stifling performance by Nick Saban’s defense made sure of that. The top-ranked Crimson Tide scored 10 points off turnovers, including Ryan Anderson’s interception return for a touchdown late in the first half, and Scarbrough’s 68-yard TD run in the fourth quarter clinched a 24-7 victory over Washington in the Peach Bowl semifinal Saturday.
