Watched it today again too… man it’s too bad Egbuka fumbled that play because I bet it’s fairly drama free if he doesn’t.

Shadow box complete and hanging for everyone to see when they walk in. I think it turned out pretty awesome.

Etsy, the person selling them will do custom engraving. It turned out great and the price was not bad at all. The tickets with the coins were a separate piece but also turned out incredible.

Shit still feels surreal..after the scum game I was furious. Just couldn’t see what was about to happen. This game and that playoff run was something I’ll never forget. I appreciate all of you who deal with emotional people like me during games.lol. Who has it better than us? OH..IO

Absolutely, I built it all with my dad that I watched each game with and handpicked all of the items. Then assembled it and it is perfect to me. Even as cool as it looks esthetically, that means more to me knowing we lived every moment of it together. Every day I look at it, I just get so happy knowing what that took.
Same here, I had to just avoid posting for a few days and not be on social media. Then I mentally calibrated the chance of a Natty, thinking no way it would happen with the path we had. Then the whole team nutted up after a really tough loss. That's a really tough thing to do and I built that shadow box out in homage to the guys that said eff it, we're going to dominate the playoffs. Hard thing to do but dammit, they did it.

Postgame Celebrations, Cotton Bowl Win over Texas Among Ohio State Seniors’ Favorite Memories from National Championship Run
“It's a dream come true, man,” Jack Sawyer said of seeing the banners on the walls. “I mean, it's been a long four years here, the ups and downs, and I wouldn't trade any of them for the world. Being able to come back now and see that we left something here feels good.”“Definitely winning the national championship,” Ty Hamilton said. “There's no better feeling than that to be able to go out there, I mean, with a whole bunch of guys you grew up with for the past five years, I mean, to see us really pull through after hitting a couple bumps in the road and be able to really exert ourselves and really make it all the way to the national championship.”
“I wouldn't really say a play, I would just say hoisting that national championship trophy at the end of the day,” said Denzel Burke. “No better feeling than that. We'll be remembered forever in Ohio, so it's awesome.”
“I think the easiest thing is to say those trophy celebrations, man. Those were something else,” Howard said. “Me and Jack dapping up up there on the Cotton Bowl and having the rose in my mouth at the Rose Bowl. Obviously, feeling the confetti run down and picking that trophy up at the end of it, those are the moments that obviously I feel coming back. It's still surreal. It's a blessing.”
“We pointed to those all offseason, hoping to hang these (banners), and seeing all my friends up here on these, seeing tears of joy, happiness, those are like the happiest moments of these guys' lives up to this point,” McLaughlin said. “So it's cool to see those kind of immortalized in the Woody.”
Jordan Hancock and Donovan Jackson both identified Ohio State’s 28-14 win over Texas as their favorite moment of the Buckeyes’ CFP run.
“Besides the confetti falling at the end, I would have to say the Cotton Bowl,” said Jackson, a native of Houston, Texas. “That was a fantastic team we went against. We knew coming into that game, it was going to be a fight. So just coming out of that fight on top was a huge thing for our team, and going into the next game, just gaining more confidence.”
“I'd probably say the Texas game was probably the best memory, for sure,” Hancock said. “It was crazy. Just going into Texas and beating Texas, you can't draw it up any better than that.”
“You've got to go with the scoop-and-score from Jack,” Tuimoloau said. “I mean, just seeing where the game was at that time, and it was tied up, it was a close game, and that kind of like changed the whole momentum. And I mean, that's one play that I'll remember, and I'm pretty sure everybody will remember for the rest of their lives.”
“I hope that goes down in history for one of the best moments ever,” Simon said. “Because I mean, Jack deserves it. He's a Columbus kid. I don't think it (could have) happened to a better person. He went and made that play by himself – or not by himself, but he went to go make that play. And we could all celebrate with him. And it was just awesome.”

I have misplaced my pants.
Off-topic, but when people mention that some kids will follow the money for their college teams, I think many or most others will look for these experiences. Ask Jack Sawyer, who is likely making a lot on NIL, how much he'd sell his celebrations for. I'm sure there's a price. What I mean is... If some generic player is offered $X at Ohio State, or another team that is expected to make deep runs into the playoffs every year, and $X + $Y at another team where it is unlikely they will win anything of note, is that $Y worth not having the memories that would be made with a better team? I'm sure it depends on what $Y is. If you're offered $1M to go to Ohio State or $6M to go to Bowling Green, you might choose to take the extra $5M to go to Bowling Green. And it might depend on what $X is. If you're offered $12M to go to Ohio State, and $17M to go to Bowling Green, that $5M doesn't seem so big, anymore. (Law of diminishing margins.)
My point is that I hope the kids realize that money isn't everything, and could never buy the experiences that Ohio State had in the 2024 season.

Re: Right after winning Super Bowl XXI: NY Giants' linebacker Pepper Johnson and tackle William Roberts were responsible for the most creative post-game celebration, doing a funky disco dance at midfield moments after the game ended. Calling it “The Dog,” they said it was a dance they learned at a fraternity party while they were teammates at Ohio State.
I remember seeing that ↑ and John Madden (TV commentator) commented on the midfield dance by Johnson/Roberts: "It doesn't get any better than that and they'll remember it the rest of their life".
Just sayin': You you are right, but I wonder how much value most college football football players but on a possibility of a celebration experience; especially having never experienced one. Most college students probably believe something to the effect of...
