2004 Alamo Bowl: Ohio State v. Oklahoma State (Drive-Thru)

www.ourhonordef...
Troy Smith may have been suspended for this game, but Justin Zwick and Ted Ginn Jr turned in a masterful performance -- the former of the two nursing a noticeable injury -- in the rout of the Cowboys.
Note: this isn't a very good copy of this game and a field goal and TD are missing, but you can still follow along just as well. Basically, this copy I have, while flawed, still has about 95 percent of what happened.

[@nathaniellathy6559]

Best 4 loss team ever

[@josephp2109]

Imagine Teddy Ginn at Urban or RD’s disposal. 😭😭😭

[@kevin2fla]

This must have been Lydell Ross' greatest game in his Ohio State career. lol

[@nospam3327]

Lol. I some point I think he realized B12 teams can't tackle ;)

[@justinalley3399]

@@nospam3327 lydell ross played with a knee inury the whole time he was at ohio state

[@dkcrook5]

We need d like this again 2022

[@gregj831]

This is essentially, the very same Ohio State team that was THE ONLY team that ever effectively contained all-world Texas QB Vince Young and should have knocked over that year's eventual National Champions. God came down and saved Texas on that night as they dodged one bullet after another. On this night, Oklahoma State was quite simply taken behind the woodshed and 'punished'. I recall those two back to back hits on their QB by Hawk and Fraser. The guy didn't know what state he was in after those brutal hits. And Teddy Ginn! I don't think anyone ever saw moves like he had and still has.

[@terrencemetter9701]

Exactly right

[@chrisdardar9445]

Yeah bucks really let texas off the hook. Texas was just destined. Remember texas had the same team but better back from a Rose Bowl winning squad. Bucks were still doing the whole Zwick/Troy crap during that game. That tight end dropping the wide open TD comes to mind. Lots of blown opportunities. Would have been nice to play the game later in the season when bucks were rolling. I think they would be coin toss games wirh Texas again or USC.....would have been great to have a 4 team playoff that year. Like many years the bucks didnt win it (all those 90s missed chances comes to mind)

[@JohnHoulgate]

Ted Ginn Jr. can walk faster than some people can drive a car.

[@nickma71]

Nothing like hard hitting linebackers....that can actually run fast. I can't say I didn't love the effort and dedication of Tuf Borland, but damn.

[@buffalospringsteen460]

I was at this game with my dad. We ran into Archie Griffin on the way to the OSU rally, and gave him a Buckeye wreath :)

[@mistertibbs1105]

Justin Zwick was TRAAASH fam!!

[@jmateen1]

proud to say that about 200 other 8th grade guys and i went to a day camp and got to hang ou with this exact team!! holmes and gonzales said i had the best hands out there out of the 200 other boys

[@astrobear5353]

I remember Coach Tressle

[@DNSKansas]

Les Miles parlayed this 26-point loss into the LSU job. Way to go, dude.

[@LaMostraVia]

🤣🤣🤣

[@FireDude13]

Gosh I remember being at this game! Early on you could see that Oklahoma State just didn't have the size or speed to compete with Ohio State. This and the TTUN game showed just how much this team improved over the season. On a side note - the Cowboy fans were definitely a 'wine and cheese' crowd who were some of the snottiest fans I have ever chatted with at a game. Apparently it was beneath them to socialize with low life fans from the upper Midwest lol

[@lightingbolt8148]

Sounds like Okie State lol

[@babyboyben6969]

its kind of funny how ohio state loses several key players to the NFL in recent years but always seem to end the season in, or close to, the top 10. Go Bucks!

[@TheRodFarva]

Woods got destroyed all game. The Buckeye defense never rebuilds, it always reloads.

[@herogibson]

was really hoping to see zwick's huge block. think it was for ginn on an end around but i couldnt remember

[@poopsyproductions]

@st8ofgrind Yes he was the coach at the time.

[@violenceteacher6669]

Goddammit I miss Ted Ginn and AJ Hawk

[@Buckroger13]

Thanks for posting this. I didn't have cable so I missed the game. The only thing I saw was a score.

[@nospam3327]

Aj did like to hit people ;) 7:32

[@paulwood5027]

Ironic zwick was #1 recruit in the nation supposed to be great QB at OSU but Smith came out of nowhere funny how things go 😶

[@marshall2411]

we had holmes, ginn, and gonzo!! I think the buckeyes put out some of the best receivers, year in, year out, always have

[@oh.....5075]

Unfortunately, we had Zwick throwing to them, though.

[@Flaminbob6060]

I was in this stadium for this game :)

[@davidquinn7822]

I use to have either.a Ross or Pittman jersey. My first pride possession is now long gone ..

[@OhioOwns]

haha 7:49 Frazier fucking smashes that QB.

[@violenceteacher6669]

Poor Les Miles yep not many people remember Miles coaching Oklahoma State

[@RequiemForABuckeye]

Nuuuuge, Ginn, and Hawk were the few bright spots of that season.

[@danielpezlo]

does anyone out there know if ESPN made a video of this game cuz I'd love to have it.

[@123acmilanfan]

lol at 7:22 ginn was like ooh hole the size of texas! hot dang man i miss watchin him play for ohio.

[@jydaflyest]

We saw Ted Ginn at QB and the defense lined up for a pass, instead of what was an obvious run. The Oklahoma State fans in my section were screaming, "HE'S GOING TO RUN!! HE'S GOING TO RUN!!" Sure enough, Ginn did just that; taking it in for a rather easy score. I'm still surprised that for all the damage he did, he only scored that one touchdown.

[@moose030406]

Ohio State is just too fast and powerful for those little 12 teams.

[@jmateen1]

@Juicedup58 they should run it with devier posey

[@col63onel]

OOD = Best Buckeye Blog. Period.

[@bryund]

@MrAngates yeah troy smith ended up being a pretty terrible QB at the collegiate level.....wait thats not right

[@MauricXe]

i forgot how fast Ted Ginn was

[@CobainStJohns]

No. Zwick was an abysmal all-hype QB who was really slow. Troy was a great runner and very smart.

[@michaelwainscott2633]

The Play of the Game 3:15

[@nospam3327]

I love the guy getting the cheerleader out of the way; they look terrified. How is that guy that fast!?! :)

[@BillyBong05]

WTF dude, Boom Herron is going to be a good runningback. A little undersized, but he's not going to be Lydell or Mo Wells

[@dftns19]

Where is Zwick's block? This game is not complete with his block.

[@CobainStJohns]

OSU's first win vs Les Miles.

[@VinnyYayo713]

Osu vs Osu 🤓🫡

[@bazerslim1]

Kickass 33-7 win over Les Miles.

[@nospam3327]

"He's not gonna throw." Lol 6:53

[@germandrummer13]

7:45 both the QB and WR got hurt on the play LOL! Go Buckeyes!

[@rshelley7496]

Funny to see troll comments from haters whos' teams either are irrelevant or have been punked by the Buckeyes...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@MrAngates]

Zwick was so much better than,Troy Smith. Tressell should have stuck with Justin......

[@jmateen1]

@babyboyben6969 cuz of tressell's recruiting

[@Danny-jb6pg]

teddy ginn going to the Superbowl

[@bryund]

@IAintIsntNotI he accepted like $500 from a booster

[@ohiopower]

U know ur bsf when ross is running all over you.

[@marshall2411]

@BillyBong05 lydell looked decent in this game though...

[@oh.....5075]

I forgot all about Lydell Ross. God, he sucked

[@goop3213]

Ha Okie state....at least Kansas State lost to the defending national champion Buckeyes and by 7

[@MargauxKim_13]

Goes to show you that Les Miles isn't that good. Pretty much anyone can get results at LSU. The talent down there is ridiculous. GO BUCKS!~!!

[@blazingdarkness16]

Les Miles, lol!

[@devantegraham3059]

I will t the same as the as a

[@kclolomama]

both the QB and the RB got hurt on the same play. but whats real funny is they where brothers. go bucks michiGAY sucks

[@MTBrown72]

9:15 ROFL!!!

[@EmmanuelMesaSupporter]

LSU was shitty for a LONG time before this Century. Gerry Dinardo (the Big 10 Network guy) couldnt win there. Ohio has better football than anywhere around there except Texas. But yeah Miles is still a BIT overrated. Miles couldnt win 60% of his games at OK State (Mike Gundy has done way better) and then SUDDENLY he goes to LSU and becomes a Genius winning 10/year?? Something sounds Fishy about his "Talent."

[@bremenrooster]

buckeyesfan 4-0 against Texas A&M, 1-2 against UT and 4-0 against TCU, 1-0 against Texas Tech and more consistent than any of them! Go Bucks!

[@BillyBong05]

1:55...LMFAO

[@poopsyproductions]

@kperry316 And we now see why Tressel's players are always in trouble, Tressel himself is getting a suspension.

[@terrencemetter9701]

Brandon C......bitter much?

[@poopsyproductions]

@babyboyben6969 It's also kinda funny how Ohio State's team seems to always have players on suspensions. Maybe Jim Tressel should try harder to get them right.
