Buckeye Classics Episode 106 69 Rose Bowl

1969 Rose Bowl
Forever Champions
Many people think of the 1968 season as Ohio State’s greatest seasons ever. And while that notion can be debated, one thing is for sure; at the beginning of the ‘68 campaign, few people thought the Buckeyes -- a team dominated by talented but unproven sophomores -- would be undefeated, ranked number one and playing for history on January 1st.
But before their dream season was complete, the Buckeyes had to face the nation’s #2 team and that years Heisman Trophy winner, O.J. Simpson, in the “Granddaddy of Them All” ... the Rose Bowl.
