That curb stomp of Clemson wins it for me.

Alabama 2014. I was there.

Hey Kirk, stay safe out there. Watch out for the lunatic fringe on the streets

He's like the CEO of his own personal brand.

The most cathartic win of my life imo is very easily The Game 2002. Idk. There isn't anything within sight of that one

Nothing in the same zip code.

Shiit, in my best SLJ voice, nothing else is the same fuckin sport

Fiesta Bowl, Miami 2002. I actually called my parents weeping like a little child. The first championship of any Buckeye team while I was both alive and old enough to see it. You never forget your first.

Yeah, the fact that it was treated as a true David vs Goliath still makes that the top one.

As far as cathartic wins, I'd rank them:
1. 2002 Cryami
2. 2002 scUM
3. 2014 Alabama
4. 2020 Clemson
5. 2018 scUM

No words

glorious

 

[Captain Buckeye]

This is the win we needed.

Now we have momentum, they’ve been sitting around, and we get payback.

I have no doubt we ROLL through Oregon.

Holy Buckeye needs a mention here if we are talking about cathartic wins

that magic bastard made a lot of us feel like it was ok to live again, that good things could happen to us.

It had been a lonnnnnnggggggg time

 

[Honor&Glory]

My mental health needed this Ralphie like beat down of Scott Farkus badly.

In addition to those games listed above,

Honorable mention to the 2017 comeback win over the pedsters.

1968 Rose Bowl. Not too many thought we could beat that USC team with OJ

To me that ranks up there with magical/suspenseful wins, but it wasn't really cathartic. It was still just Purdue, and a mediocre edition at that. It was too early to know things had truly changed until 2002 scUM. 2001 was a glorious surprise, but it could be written off as catching them underestimating us. With everything on the line for the 2002 game I was preparing for another heartbreak, especially with a hobbled MoC. That win exorcised the demons of the 90s. But I can respect why you'd rank it up there
