Bruce Elia is correct. Played fullback after Henson was injured in 1973 (14 TDs), and then led the team in tackles at LB in 1974 (144).
Next question coming right up.

Only Ohio State is correct. Archie Griffin in ‘73 and ‘74, and Braxton Miller in ‘12 and ‘13.
Minnesota (Giel), Indiana (Thompson), and Penn State (Barkley, with 1 shared) each have 1 player with 2 Silver Footballs.
Last question coming right up.

Just list the years - List all of the years in which a single Buckeye won both the Chicago Tribune's Silver Football (Big Ten MVP) Award and the Heisman Trophy in the same season.

But he didn't win the Heisman. Isn't the question list the years that a Buckeye won both the Heisman and the Silver Football in the same year?

Correct.
1944 - Les Horvath
1950 - Vic Janowicz
1955 - Hopalong Cassady
1974 - Archie Griffin
1995 - Eddie George
2006 - Troy Smith
Not in 1975 - Corny Greene won the Silver Football (Archie's second Heisman year) .
Orlando Pace won the Silver Football in ‘96, the year after Eddie won both.
The contest will return at 7 pm ET today.
Let me take care of the ban now.
OK, no ban, but I'm not posting the broom.
