- 1968 Purdue
The Turning Point
Ohio State’s 1968 victory over top-ranked Purdue is perhaps the greatest win in the history of Ohio State football.
The Buckeyes came into the game as 13-point underdogs and were looking to avenge a humiliating 41-6 loss, at home, the previous season, a loss that led many to call for Hayes’ dismissal.
Purdue was led by halfback Leroy Keyes (the preseason favorite for the Heisman Trophy) and All-American quarterback Mike Phipps and were seen as a lock for their second straight Big Ten title.
The win was a springboard to the national championship and to a season that still reverberates in the hearts of Buckeye fans everywhere.

I was a little too young to have felt the impact of this game so I appreciate the context. I was unaware that Woody almost had one foot out the door before '68. So this victory started the "modern era" of Ohio State football.

In Spokane, Washington There is a large section of veteran from all walks of life. The City of Spokane has a outright white mans right of passage and the blacks are forced too treated like the have notes in the the following areas;
# A person like my brother, who is black cannot even receive medication from the Spokane Veterans Administration Hospital
# A person like my youngest brother who live in Spokane filed via the Spokane Police Department a law suit against every business and Every person in a guide to congregationand community resources. Years later the Spokane Police Department has done not to help my younger brother Juan because of his first name Juan.

back again ....... LOVE this stuff !!!
Jack Tatum would end up excelling when he played for the raiders!
A ton of talent...who only won it once. Lack of originality always caught up with Hayes in big games. BTW, Keyes was not the preseason favorite for the Heisman; that would be the killer O.J. Simpson.
I was a Boiler and at that game. Some fellow students and I came over the night before and met some friendly Buckeye students at a bar who lived in a big house and told we could sleep over there if we promised to stay Saturday night for a party. Hell yes! We expected to be celebrating a Boiler win, but not so! OSU really controlled us, I don't think Keyes wanted to line up against Tatum in the second half, we couldn't get anything going, shut out 13-0!! Long Saturday night and drive home Sunday. But the guys we met at OSU were great hosts!
The game should (would) have been played in West Lafayette except Purdue sold the home advantage to OSU for a bigger split of the revenue. (Purdue played @ OSU in '67, 68, and 69.) And the rich got richer. Also a watershed game for the Purdue's football program, as it was probably the last team Purdue ever had with a serious chance of winning the National Championship.
Lack of offense caught up with Ohio State against Michigan in 69 and Stanford in 71 Rose Bowl
Great to see Jimmy Crum. Always a classy guy.
I was at this game. I kept my eyes on Tatum and that alone told me to never get hit by him. He was so great. RIP Jack. You are very missed.
Darryl Stingley
He was a monster for the raiders
