The Buckeyes' Most Agonizing Loss
I voted for the 1998 Michigan State fiasco - no way the Bucks should have lost that one.
Thanks to 3yardsandacloud for his contributions to this poll.

MSU - 1998. I'm still having trouble believing it.

I know most people refer to the '98 team as being the most talented buckeye team of the 90's, but I personally think the '96 team was better. What really chaps me about that season is that UF got the MNC that year (and the gator fans down here always talk about that season) after getting to avenge a loss at the end of their season against the same team, whereas we didn't get that same chance and ended up being #2 again...

1976 Rose Bowl was more painful than 1998. vs Mich. St.
The 2003 Fiesta Bowl removed the pain of 1998 for me.
The pain from 1973-74-75 still lingers.
