My best memory is a game against Minnesota in pouring rain that was the last I ever attended with my late father. It was a blow out but we stayed until the last minute. Never, ever turn down a chance to watch the Buckeyes in the hallowed epicenter of college football!

To bittersweet memories.:cheers:
I’m taking my son tomorrow to our first Buckeye game together. I have already warned him that we are staying to the last note of Carmen Ohio.
He’s 17. Hopefully it won’t be our last.

The first eight games of 1973, the defense gave up a grand total of 20 points while pitching four shutouts and limiting the other four teams to a single score (Minnesota TD, TCU FG, Washington State FG, Indiana TD).

There's something of a family tradition in my house.To bittersweet memories.:cheers:

My Grandfather and my Dad took me to my first game in the Shoe when I was 10. My Dad and I took my son to HIS first game when he was 10.
Really looking forward to my son and I taking my grandson to his first game at the age of 10, next season. He's already a huge Buckeye fan, being a 5th generation Buckeye, and already is excited about continuing the tradition.

Dang, trying to get me misty eyed ! Great memory I’m sure and you’ve absolutely shamed me for leaving in the 4th quarter of blowouts on glorious fall weather days. Hope my boy has a story like yours one day.

My apologies. guys. I think I owe you an explanation for this post.I couldn't help laughing myself silly reading this. Maybe I'm crazy, but it's one of the funniest things I ever read!
What struck me so funny was that it reminded me of my service in the US Navy, in Washington, DC. A message from the Bureau of Personnel came in to the administration office which read, and I quote, "Effective the above date, all material not being able to be found shall be considered lost."
The stuff about the weather, umbrellas and ponchos just tickled me no end. Again I apologize, but I still think it's funny as hell.
Re: On November 6, 1869, Rutgers and Princeton played what was billed as the first college football game.
Are any of the original starters still on the team?
