Ohio St. 28 - 17 Penn St. (Final)

This is the only game all year where a team took Ohio State into the fourth quarter.  Down 21-0 in the third quarter, Penn State scored 17 quick points to make the score 21-17 with one quarter to go.  But OSU put one more touchdown on the board, and the Buckeye defense made it stand up, and Ohio State had its 11th victory of the season.

It was the last game of the year in Columbus, a town that loves its football team, and has rarely had a season more pleasant than this one.  The Buckeye fans cheered and cheered through the gloom and rain of the fourth quarter, and one can hardly blame them.  They have dominated almost every team they'v played, they pulled out a tough victory against a very good Penn State team, and now they are only two games away from the playoff.
