Troy Smith's Greatest Performance

[RhodeIslandBuck]

What do you thing was Troy's best performance?

Interesting poll.

I went with the 2006 TSUN game. There was so much pressure on him all week, he tore them apart. He cemented his legendary Buckeye legacy with the win.

I have always been a fan of the '05 michigan game ... he made some jaw-dropping plays in that one.

Hopefully his performance in Glendale will put an end to this discussion. I feel that we haven't seen the best of Troy yet this season (as ridiculous as that sounds, it's more of a testament to just how freaking good he is)

I went with 2004 scUM. That was Troy's coming out party-the day that he sent the word to the Buckeye nation that he was gonna be the guy.

Agreed, at a time when we least expected it - a legend was born. 2005 and 2006 cemented the deal.

While I think that 2005 scUM was definitely his most clutch game, I voted for the 2006 scUM game because of the ridiculous amount of pressure on him (#1 vs. #2, heisman on the line, national audience, etc) and he still came out and played fantastic.

i must say that the 2006 game vs UM is my favorite because of the caliber of their defense and he put up 316 yards against them. Also because it is sending him to a NC. Though 2006 ND is is close because of his great numbers...

Nix that, all year is more like it.

tuff poll there IMO I think 2004 game against TSUN, but this year all the games rank real high. how can you single out one game with the kick ass QB
we have?

 

[OhioState49]

I got to go with 2005 scUM. He had so many great plays. But this was a close one between 2005 and 2006.

 

[TGC OSU'62]

I had to go with 2006 TSUN - the pressure of the Tri-peat victory had to be huge and it put him in a very elite status.

 

[lvbuckeye]

wow, the voting is pretty even...

 

[Oh8ch]

Gotta go with the 2005. So much tougher without the friendly confines.

 

[Buckeye86]

I voted 2004 because he didn't have the supporting cast that year (no offense all year) and pretty much single handedly ignited the offense for the best single game preformance ever.

Tough choice.
The three games against TSUN are certainly a notch above the others in my mind. While 2004 was my first inclination, I went with 2006. Why? Because of all the hype surrounding the game, "Win one for Bo," a fired up opposition, the Heisman is on the line, a sole Big 10 Championship, a berth in the BCS CHampionship game, and Troy can become only the 2nd Buckeye QB to go 3-0 versus our arch-rival.

That is a lot of orders to fill.
