My dad and I missed our flight from Nashville to Columbus so we flew to Houston, then St. Louis, then Chicago, and finally to Columbus. Got in at 11:00 P.M. on Friday. I turned 13 the next day. One incredible memory.

[@DanielDanford-t6v]

My best friend and I drove there, we scored tickets right before game start on the 5th row at the 35 yard line, was an amazing game and experience i'll never forget

[@dmansf49ers71]

This is the first and only time I ever got to see the buckeyes play a regular season game A friend of mine asked me if I would like to go see them I said yes and was never expecting anything I guess I'll never forget it

[@amusement420]

I was there. We had seats right down across from where he was stopped short of the goal line and he knew it. Quite a comeback it was a good game. Wasn't a surprise we heard the name Philip Rivers in the NFL.

[@brutussmithers3777]

23:04 Man, Hawk sure had some exciting picks in his career.

[@LaMostraVia]

Yeah man plus they were always in the clutch 🏆 Plus he was mainly responsible for the game saving tackle at the end

[@ohiopower]

Bucks got lucky in that one. I was suprised NC State went on to have such a hum drum season. They had Phillip Rivers Jerricho Cotchery. Manny Lawson on D.

[@nateschmidt1338]

Mario Williams went on to be the #1 pick in the draft!

[@Jabberwocky237]

If OSU had Clarrett this season they might have had the chance to defend their title.

[@ala2417]

They definitely would have back to back titles with Clarett!

[@Jabberwocky237]

Michael Neely well, it took a long time but he’s seemed to grow into a good man. It’s unfortunate he made the decisions he made and essentially ruined though.

[@osu5inarow]

@Michael Neely Well, what hurt him was more the AD and NCAA screwing him over in a scumbag way. If it wasn't for them, he may not of had those issues as they happened almost as a result of that. I'm not particularly trying to defend him but, when a person loses someone extremely close and then get lied to and punished at the same time, it can ruin a person.

[@KasinoGotti]

This year would of been they only championship. The one against Miami they cheated and won that. Go back and watch the bs pass interference call that was called 5 seconds after the game was over

[@OGDeepStroke]

If they had him, the BuckEyes would have put up 60.

[@nospam3327]

Tbh, I forgot how crazy the ending to this game was. Tresselball produced quite a few these tho ;)

[@LaMostraVia]

Yeah wow same here that goal line stop was insane

[@jclemons121384]

I still think McLendon is going to get in everytime I see the end.

[@natestakely1478]

Jim's algorithm allowed for close finishes. The early days are almost unwatchable due to 3 yds and a cloud of dust. Woody's adage I know but Jim played it as well. Jim/Fickell D of smart players bend but don't break. Oh well. Earl/Coop zero, Jim 1 natty, Urbs 1 natty, Day no nattys yet. I believe both Jim & Urbs were espnd from 2.

[@Joshua-ev9uw]

I was 13 years old and this game was infuriating. I couldn't believe it. It hurt in the deepest chambers on my heart.

[@jclemons121384]

I was 19, and it made me glassy eyed for sure. Thought we had them.

[@zacharyglass3610]

How did losing to your daddies Wake Forest feel the week before?

[@scottwilliams556]

NFL hall of fame Quaterback Philip Rivers . Hopefully they Colts will get to Superbowl. What a way to send a career in This NFL to help four team win a Superbowl. Say whatever you want the arms. Philip is a tremendous competetitor and winner . He still hold all the passing seconds and touchdowns comp,eyed at NC State. Go pack

[@Fresh-tw7ev]

#44 buttcheeks hit the 1/2 yd line! What a great game by Philip Rivers and McClendon and Cotchery. The Buckeye running game was weak, anemic and sluggish.

[@thomasmaddox1733]

How many NFL players player in that game? 6 or 7 from NCSU I know probably 15 to 25 is my guess total

[@sargondp69]

Low guess. OU has many, as always, two I know played for the Panthers (Gamble and Carter). One lineman blocked for Rivers in SD. State here has around 10 pros in the starting line-up alone, three were #1 picks (Lawson was also #1 pick). Hard to place any accurate number as some players are in the NFL part of a season or two and then done, often injured like J. McCargo who was a first round pick to Buffalo, oddly where M. Williams and M. Lawson from State both played together later. State had 3 OT losses this season. This defense for State is #1 in the country the next season (then #11 the next year), but Rivers is gone and the offense was so bad they had a losing record - an amazing feat really.

[@LaMostraVia]

35:08 incredible pass and catch 🏆

[@rogerhoke9725]

The first flight happened in North Carolina. What the hell else do you need explained to you?

[@LaMostraVia]

Rewatching this game there were some seriously questionable calls at the end of this game against Ohio state. But in the end if they were getting homered, they would have said that rob was in at the end. So those calls may have been justified I don’t know.

[@jevarbrown4029]

He probably meant in Columbus. This wasn't the very first ot game in their history. But it was the first in the horseshoe.

If I’m not mistaken, Will Allen that made the stop on the last play, was shot and killed years later in New Orleans. Somebody correct me if I’m wrong!

It was Will Smith the defensive end that played for the New Orleans Saints.

Am a browns Ohio state fan but after that game became a high Philip rivers fan

[@darrellschmitz4145]

Worse officiating ever. It's like the refs wanted to make up for a bad call. NCST had Bucks running plays shutdown and QB wasn't hitting his receivers.

[@christiancharles309]

No the Buckeys won. The worst officiating was last night against Clemson. Ohio State was robbed by the officials.

[@christiancharles309]

Fact

[@dannyjoe3343]

I've always hated watchin Phillip River's release. Always seemed like the ball was as heavy as a medicine ball when he threw it.

[@ThatEflatGuy]

Funny story behind that…he grew up watching his dad coach high school football and as a little tyke he was always trying to throw the footballs that were too big for him…so he had to put some extra force into it and the habit stuck even as he grew up

[@osu5inarow]

Philip Rivers still throws like Uncle Rico I think

6 pass interference calls and 3 personnel fouls on Ohio state. 0 and 0 for NC State by a ref that sounds like hes straight outta the south lol. I cant believe no one has even noticed that hahaa. What a joke.

[@WalterWhiteFootballSharing]

Ugh; bad game for me, neither team hit 100 rushing yards. I can put up with low rush totals in NFL games; because the Passing offenses are so well designed, and have to be flawlessly executed to defeat NFL coverages on a down to down basis to move it down the field. But NCAA is a Rushing league; B1G is a Rushing Conference; and my Buckeyes; passing is for sissies who NEED to do it because theyre so weak 2 runs and they're in 3rd and 8. I just can't bear to see them fail so badly at imposing their will.

[@WalterWhiteFootballSharing]

Real B1G fans, Run Game Blocking Scheme afficianados; we can't stand watching the modern B1G 12; except maybe Oklahoma. Esp when Joe Mixon and Samaje Perine were ramming it down the throats of soft Big12 Defenses.
