The numbers are overwhelming: Four national championships (and counting). Thirty conference championships. Five Heisman Trophy winners, including the only two-time Heisman winner in history. Dozens of All-Americans. Countless statistical milestones.
But the numbers alone don't do justice to the impact that Ohio State football has had and continues to have on its legion of fans. What takes place within the storied confines of Ohio Stadium is more than simply a game; it's a way of life.
John Cooper put it well when he was named head coach: "This is the Ohio State University. There are no others. What a tradition! I mean, Archie Griffin won two Heismans, and he works right down the hall!"
Game Day Ohio State Football is a celebration of that tradition, and of the decades of gridiron excellence that have shaped it.
