Another play that was crucial to winning the first Natty in 30+ years was 4th and 14.

At the 8:13 mark:

My grandfather had died not long before that game. He wasn’t into football at all. Before that 4th and 14 I actually prayed.

Not to any god who has better things to do than worry about a football game but to my grandpa. Knowing him, I didn’t ask if he’d let OSU win, I just asked to not let it end like this. Just help me out on this one play.

Jenkins easily converted it after the time out.

I grew up in Georgia and wasn't really exposed to THE greatness until I got to tOSU in the early '90s (in the midst of Cooper-time). I have watched religiously ever since and the only play, of all the great ones in the above posts, for me if there is one greatest is the MoC Strip.

That, to me, is a play that exemplifies determination and a relentless desire to win. Mo was such an amazing player, it's a shame the trappings of success and fame temporarily derailed his life. I'm so happy he turned his life around the way he has and that he's being welcomed back into the Buckeye family. He did incredible things on the field, then incredibly dumb things off of it; but he did not let that define him. As a fellow Warren boy, Mo, Korey Stringer, and Boom will always hold a special place in my heart.

Saw an Aaron Hernandez 10 part series on .... peacock, maybe? Anyway.... MoC had a real chance to end up like him. I'm glad he got off that road because, like you, I remember a freshman who had his head screwed on alright (he was then and remains now a bright and insightful person) who ran like nobody I'd ever seen before.

With the upcoming opponent in mind, Teddy’s reverse/end around in the Fiesta Bowl after the 2005 season was an adrenaline rush.
Even with Doug Datish crossing the goal line before Teddy.

San Antonio Holmes enjoyed throwing that blindside block so much. :lol:

I'm sure he would be flagged for it these days.
