When you look at this we gotta realize we have had it pretty good for 20 years..ya there are a few teams that have more titles, and ya a few have even got us head to head, and a few near opps at a few other Natties have been lost....but, 2 Natties, 10 BCS / playoff bowl victories, 12 Conference titles, and a boat load of highlights and great players is something to be really thankful for, and as much as they are hated there are about 105 to 110 teams that would love to have that resume this millenium..Ted Ginn Jr gotta be one of the most electric and exciting Buckeyes ever, if not THE most..😎❤️👊🏽🏈🍻

winning a national championship the year I was born and now becoming a buckeye myself! feels great

Gawd I miss Keith Jackson…fabulous commentator with a golden voice.

Look at that blocking on Clarett's td against Miami.

PSU and Wisconsin have given us barnburners what great games down to the wire

1- Clarett’s strip ( vs Miami) (2002) 2- Zeke’s 65 yard TD run vs Bama (2014) 3- Troy Smith incredible performance against Mich (2006) 4- JT putting the team on his back against Michigan (2016) 5- Joey Bosa sack Penn St game (2014) wins the game Honorable mention - Cardale Jones performance B10 championship game 2014 Pryor performance against Arkansas AND Oregon in bowl games (2008 & 2009) Chase Young 4 sacks against Wisconsin (2019) Justin Fields dominates Clemson (2020)

Ginn could just glide down a field.

Rex Kern and Ted Ginn my 2 most favorite Buckeyes.

If clarett would have stayed, let's say all 4 years, he would have been the running back on the team with Troy Smith at qb, teddy ginn and santonio holmes at receivers with clarett at the rb position. Damn that team would have been tough as hell. I mean they were very good without clarett, just think how good they would have been with him in the backfield, damn. This is all assuming his years would have lined up like this, and I think they would have. Edit: And would have Anthony Gonzalez been able to be on that team as well???? If so then damm, that offense would have been killer!!!!

Chris Gamble was a stud!!!!!
