Still like the 98 team a little better. Just didn’t like the way Cooper handled the quarterback situation. The BTN Elite special on this team did a really job of talking about that. I always was a big Joe Germaine fan!
Yes we should have, and several others, when we beat ourselves! Still The Best College football program in history! Not just my opinion, but have read that Ohio State, and Oklahoma, are considered the two best programs in college football history! 🌰🏈
This was total destruction of Penn State, revenge for 2 years earlier. Too bad we didn't get the shutout. Also, Joe Montgomery was a beast. Watch him in the 4th quarter and he was a freshman. Too bad he broke his leg and missed a whole year. Always one of my favorites.
@grodhagen Why Joe Germaine wasnt the starter, is a great example of why they never did win a NC, nor could not beat good teams, under Cooper. One was a starter, one was not...and it wasnt in the order Cooper started then in.
Sweet! This was my first Ohio State game in person, so something I remember well. My aunt was doing her PhD at OSU and had tickets at the back of B-deck, so we couldn't see the scoreboard and had to stand the entire game, but I'll never forget how loud it was. You can also see the soccer lines on the field from the inaugural season of the Columbus Crew!
Even though Penn State lost this game, it was an honor for them to be involved in the first-ever head gear pick by Lee Corso even though he didn't pick us to win. (He was correct though) "BUCKEYES!" That scene never gets old.
This was the first game between Ohio State and Penn State in Ohio Stadium since 1993; the 1994 and 1995 games between the two teams were played at Penn State. With the exception of the 2006 game between Ohio State and Michigan, this 1996 matchup between Ohio State and Penn State was one of the toughest tickets to get. There were few tickets available for sale outside of Ohio Stadium.
Wally Richardson holding Penn State a bit back as always through errant reads and passes, but Ohio State was clearly the best team in the country that year and Pace was unreal.
Sometimes I forget how good these mid 90 ohio state teams were..at least till the end if the year...1993...95..96..97..98...they lose to Mich st in 98 coached by Nick Saban....95-98 they lost to MIchigan which in turned cost them a shot at the nt...in 97 the also lost at Penn St. but were back up to no.4 by the time they played at MIch who was no.2 and would end up winning a share of the nt that year w Neb ...that's 5 legit seasons they missed out on a shot...the big ten was also alot better back then too
Me and brother in law were at this game. I was frothing with revenge from 94’! The Buckeyes totally kicked pee states ass that day it was glorious!! North end zone screaming and watching our boys score on them time after time. Great game OHIO STATE
College Gameday was at this game and it was thr first time Lee Corso made his pick for the game by putting the mascot headgear on. He chose the Buckeyes!
Thanks for another great upload! I got shivers down my spine when I heard the opening by the immortal Keith Jackson: "From Big Ten country....."
1996 and 1998 we should have won the National Championship

How should osu have won the national championship those years when they haven't even played in the games!
Or at very minimum played for them. Stupid Michigan state in 1998 😔😒

Michigan schools ruined that😂
Demetrius Stanley....R.I.P...BUCKEYE...!!!
I loved watching him play but I enjoyed his personality even more so on Buckeye Football Fever.

This Buckeye team should have won the NC.

Always good to see us slashing through Sandusky's defense.

he was terrible. PSU QBs sucked after Kerry Collins.
Thanks broooo. You came through big time
20th anniversary of Woody Hayes last win against Penn State Joe Paterno gets steamroller by Buckeyes machine.
Thank you. This ..is say....this is what they call an "ass kicking".
Thanks for the Ohio State classics! These are great! Out of curiosity, you wouldn’t happen to have Ohio State-Wyoming 1997? I know it’s random lol
Unfortunately not. I'm rather thin on the Buckeyes 97 season.

Do you have the Ohio State Wisconsin 1996 game? It used to be on RUclips on another account a year ago but it must’ve got deleted.
Yes, it will likely be up this week.
SteelBuck 6 That’s good to hear. Thank you
