you must be smoking the same stuff the nd fans are. osu is on a great run in part because the big10 SUCKS! it's a 3 team conference.
until the vest arrived, osu hadn't a sniff of the national championship game back to woody and the late 60's early 70's.

They were the number 1 ranked team in 1979 or 1980 under Earle Bruce in Schlichter's sophomore year and lost by one point in the Rose Bowl to USC with Charles White I think. They were undefeated and ranked number one headed into that game.

that was 1979...they lost the 1980 Rose Bowl 17-16. They also had sniffs under JOhn Cooper, but he would always lose to Michigan. I think the 1996 season they lost one game and beat an undefeated Arizona state team in the rose bowl I think?? But they certainly sniffed a championship that year as well.
