Amazing as I look, because before that you have to go to ties with SMU in 1978 and TCU in 1961, and a loss to TCU in 1957.

Interesting that those were all Texas schools. My favorite factoid regarding
OSU football has to do with Texas schools.
When we won the Consensus NC in 2002 we opened the season with Texas Tech.
When we won the National Football Foundation NC in 1970 we opened with Texas A&M.
When we won the Consensus NC in 1968 we opened with SMU.
When we won the Football Writers NC in 1961 we opened with TCU.
When we won the Consensus NC in 1957 we opened with TCU.
We need to find a way to cancel the games that precede the Texas matchup in 2005 and 2006.
(And when we won the consensus NC in 1954 we opened with Indiana. BUT, the current Texas Tech basketball coach not only won NCs at Indiana, but also played for
OSU the only time they won an NC. Or am I stretching too much for that one?)
