After reading thread on biggest buckeye plays got to thinking about the flip side. What are the most disappointing plays?
-nate salley step late vs texas.
-going three and out late vs scum 03.
-sparty ends perfect season.
-2nd half of florida title game.
misery
Only the 2nd half disappointed you? I was unhappy every play once it turned 7-14. That was easily the most disappointing game I've ever witnessed. Also I don't blame Salley for the Texas game, in my opinion the Hamby drop was most disappointing, anyways though, I think that entire last 4:30 minutes or so was just a disappointing... Vince's drive, Zwick's fumble, the safety... we just completely fell apart.
As for other great disappointments, let me just reiterate what everyone, mainly grad, has already stated; almost every Michigan and bowl game in the 1990's. From the earliest that I can remember:
1994 Penn State - Slaughter... might just be the worst loss in Buckeye history... second to the 0-86 scUM game of 1902. I just remember how upset my dad was throughout the game, and how we didn't watch any news for the entire next week.
1994 Alabama - Shelton Williams, and falling short with about 2:30 minutes to play.
1995 Michigan - Bitchabatuka...
1996 TenneCHEAT - How about their RB going for over 100 yards rushing and receiving... a feat that was repeated from the '95 Citrus by Shelton.
1996 Michigan - ...
1997 Michigan - Woodson...
1998 Florida State - Slaughtering... and poor Lumpkin
1998 Michigan State - Beh... was the former crown holder of the most disappointing game for me as a buckeye fan until this past January.
1999... Pretty much the entire season...
2001 South Carolina - Damn field goal...
2002 - ABSOLUTLEY NO DISAPPOINTMENTS!!! HAHAHA, THE BEST YEAR EVER!!
2003 Wisconsin - Gamble gets torched by Evans...
2003 Michigan - Perry...
2004 Northwestern - OT loss snapped our 24 game win streak over the Wildcats, which was the modern day record for the Big Ten; most consecutive wins over a conference opponent.
2004 Iowa - Was 3rd on my list until this past January...
2005 Texas - Just the outcome of the game, otherwise I loved it, what a matchup of two of college football's all-time titans.
2005 Penn State - Former runner up to '98 Michigan State...
2007 Florida - Obviously #1....
Man those stupid games sucked badly... here's to nothing else in '07 making this list!!!
