1997 Rose Bowl

[BuckeyeSkins]

I know a lot of folks have put ESPin on ignore but thought I'd let you know they are replaying the '97 Rose Bowl with Arizona State on ESPin Classic. Probably highlights since it's only scheduled for an hour.

I watched this earlier tonight. Jake Plummer had the same stupid, glazed look in his eyes that he had last week when Eli Manning drove the length of the field, Germaine-style.

Yeah, and Musberger still said "you can cut off a snake's head but you can't kill it". Well we definitely killed that snake!

I'll never forget the ASU coach going crazy and raising the roof.

Then watching his world cave in when the Buckeyes scored.

It was my favorite Buckeye childhood memory.

My favorite moment is when Plummer winks to the camera as we are marching down the field

It's part of one of my favorite Buckeye memories too. The wink. Standing on the sidelines, drawing attention to himself screaming at the defense, unsung Joe Germaine's coolness and Plummer melting into the crowd and sitting on the bench as Ohio State marched down the field. The picture of that game still hangs on my office wall beside a large picture of the 'Shoe.

:osu:

That's one for the meat-eaters, eh!

the thing about that game that always sticks out to me was david boston, as a freshman (from Humble, TX) catching the winning TD. He was bad.

greatest Buckeye game of my life outside of the NC game

I was at the '97 Rose Bowl game. It is one of the best memories I have. I can still see Boston scoring the last touchdown in my mind and can remember going ape when he did.

I have that game on VHS, it was really a great game and Coop actually won the big game that year.

My wife is a Texas A&M grad, after that game she was all BUCKEYE!

It is on Classic channel right now. I just noticed that there is a #50 DE named Gholstin (close to Gholston) on this team too!
