Buckeye Traditions (Merged)

Actually, Ohio State and the NCAA credit Woody with NC's for 1961 and 1970....

I'm well aware of the work that you and Dryden (and others I'm sure) have done to fully document the NCs.

But I only include those that I've listed as the ones that I think Buckeye fans should be required to know. '61 - we 'decided' not to go to the Rose: That right there might make the list for some people. 1970 is a stretch IMHO.

Imo this isn't a tradition and I like to think I have more class than to use it.
And neither would Woody, Or Coop, or Bruce , or JT or any other coach. Nor would they want it used.

Oh, I definitely agree with you, especially about the 1970 "championship". I'm actually surprised that the NCAA gives the Bucks credit for that one....

Shouldn't you be able to rattle off some of the more eminent battles between Michigan and Ohio State? Certain games ought to come right off the top of the head, with scores and pertinent trivia.

- 1950: Snow Bowl. 9-3.
- 1968: "Because I couldn't go for three".....fucker. 50-14.
- 1969: Bo pulls off the upset. 24-12.
- 1973: 10-10, and an infamous vote sends OSU to the Rose Bowl.
- 1995: Biakabutuka rolls for 313. 31-23.
- 2006: #1 vs. #2. 42-39.

...

For the most part that's a great list, but I'm a little confused about the 1995 one. Was there a game that year? What do those letters and numbers after "1995" mean? Can you actually use them in that combination? I don't recall anything like that.

I disagree. It's a birthright. JT may say he disagrees with it, but he also "voted" scUM #1 a little less than a year ago.

Tshimanga Biakabutuka....try saying that five times fast :biggrin:

You can always just do like we did and just say Touchdown Tim. Much easier.

Required reading IMO :osu:

Required possession for the household. I'm not sure I'd require that EVERY Buckeye fan read it cover-to-cover. But if you don't have it in your house by now, you should not only be required to purchase it immediately; but you should also be required to send Jack Park a formal apology.
