Though World War II loomed over the nation, Ohio State football fans reveled in one of the most glorious seasons ever. The Buckeyes captured the school’s first national championship as well as a Big Ten title, finishing the year 9-1 and ranked No. 1 in the Associated Press poll. Led by a star-studded backfield that included Les Horvath, Paul Sarringhaus and Gene Fekete, OSU rolled to 337 points, a record that stood until 1969. The only loss of the season, a 17-7 decision at Wisconsin, even had an asterisk as several key players and coaches caught a debilitating virus from a drinking fountain on the train from Chicago to Madison. 102 2019 Ohio State Football NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIPS Rank SEPT 25 Indiana W 28-0 14 OCT 02 #18 California W 21-13 10 09 at Illinois W 40-7 4 16 #13 Iowa W 20-14 4 23 #2 Wisconsin W 31-14 1 30 at Northwestern W 14-7 2 NOV 06 #20 Pitt W 26-0 2 13 at Purdue W 28-6 1 20 #12 Michigan W 21-7 1 JAN 01 vs. #17 USC W 20-7 1954 NATIONAL CHAMPIONS – ASSOCIATED PRESS Front Row: Hubert Bobo, Kenneth Thompson, James Roseboro, Morris, William Cummings, Raymond Williams, William Jobko, Jack Archer, David Richards, Jerry Trabue, James Wassmund, Richard Guy, Richard Slicker, Robert Lilienthal, Robert Cole, William Michael, Ernie Godfrey.

Ohio State claims its second national championship with a perfect 10-0 season, beating Southern Cal, 20-7, in a rainy, mud- soaked Rose Bowl game. The rift between West Coast writers and Hayes is born when the OSU coach criticizes the Tournament of Roses Association for not covering the field before the game and allowing the bands to perform at halftime. The team forced 35 turnovers during a season in which the Buckeyes knocked off six ranked teams.

Ohio State knocked off Oregon 10-7 in the Rose Bowl for its third- consecutive win in Pasadena.

Ohio State finishes 8-0-1, wins at Michigan, 50-20, claims the Big Ten crown and is named national champions by the Football Writers. A bitter dispute among the school’s faculty council erupted when a Rose Bowl invitation arrived. By a narrow margin, the council voted not to accept the invitation and skip the bowl game. A livid Hayes claimed for years the decision hampered his recruiting efforts.

Arguably the finest Ohio State team in history uses a dominating 50-14 win over Michigan and a 27-16 come-from-behind victory over Southern California in the Rose Bowl to earn the school’s fifth national championship. Before the final polls crowning the Buckeyes champions are released, Coach Hayes departs for Vietnam for a volunteer trip to talk football with U.S. servicemen. Later, the Sporting News called this team one of the 10 greatest college football teams of all-time. The Ohio State offense averaged 32 points per game and 440 yards per contest.
