IT has the most hits in all of 2006 and 2007 and each year I just add to it too keep those OLD fans, I mean OLD rose colored glasses from getting to caught up in the OLD OLD PAST.
Just a gentle reminder that the past can't escape osu, so get ready for me to add to this list. I love it, if LSU wins, you guys hate me more, if LSU losses, you guys will be coming for me like a pack of dogs. I love it. Highlighted are the BIG TIME CHOKES by osu since 1970, most of ANY program out there. They choke because their conference doesn't get them ready for the REAL games.
FACTS:
1970, osu goes unbeaten in the big ten and goes to play standford for all the marbles and losses 27-17 and finishes number 5 in the AP poll. They did not win the upi or ap poll national title and any team that loses their last game is not the national title team. Some biased foudnation gave you a worthless national title that is not reconzied by the NCAA. That is one less REAL title osu has won. IN TODAY"S football world, that title would be not exist and it is sad some of your websites claim it, what a joke. YOU LOST YOUR LAST GAME.
1972: Won the big ten and had one lost going into the bowl game against Southern Cal. Lost big time 42-17. Another choke
1973: Tied michigan, won bowl game, but didn't win a share of title or nothing. I think that is more impressive than in 1970? YET you didn't get a title just like you didn't get on one in 1970, you just got some silly foundation biased title. Another choke
1974, won the big ten and had one loss going into big bowl game with so cal. You lost 18-17. Another choke
1975. Unbeaten going into a big national title game against ucla, you lost 23-10. Another example of the WEAK 10 being weak and exposing you by bowl game. CHOKE.
1977. Bama destoryed you 35-6 in sugar bowl. Another woody bowl loss and exposed the big ten again.
1978. You know the year, clemson beats you and osu football is never the same, but the same in one aspect, the can't win big bowl games out of conference.
1979. Earl bruce goes unbeaten and then goes to play for national title and osu losses again a bowl game and a national title to so cal 18-17. Man this is funny stuff, but why I always bring up that history repeats itself for your overrated program over and over.
1980. Lost bowl game
1986 is an interesting season since you lost to bama and then bad to washington, but somehow ran pretty much thru the big ten.
1989. lost to auburn in bowl
1990. lost to air force in bowl.
1991. lost to su in bowl
1992. lost to uga in bowl
1993, tied wisconsin and lost big to michigan, but hey they won bowl game.
1994, lost bowl game to bama
1995 the most talented osu team ever, based on nfl. Lost to michigan last game, then to tenn in bowl. choked
1996, the same thing lost to michigan and choked, won bowl game over asu, but didn't play the SEC.
1997, same thing then choked against michigan state, michigan and then fsu took care of them in bowl.
1998, same thing choked against michigan state. TENN won it all that year.
2000, lost to south carolina
2001, tressel losses to south carolina
2002, the glory year. Like I said the sun can shine on a school every once in awhile.
2006, unbeaten, what happens? Got spanked again by an SEC team and loss national title. No ref this time, just a destruction. History repeats intself for osu football since football has become a even playing field and we don't have foundations giving out meaniless unreconized titles.
2007, unbeaten late in the season again, ILL beats you, you get lucky get back in the game and then booooooooom, you get LSU in its on STATE. what will we say after tonight?? IT is put up or shut up time for OSU fans and let's see if you have the OVERALL DEPTH to beat LSU. I say no you don't.
End of the 2008, a LSU team with barely breaking a sweat scores 31 unanswered points in route to another SEC national title and 0-9 offically cemented in the OSU lore forEVER.
