48. 1979 UCLA
The 1979 Buckeyes began their season with a new head coach and question marks galore. Yet in spite of winning their first three games, uncertainties remained as they headed to Los Angeles to take on UCLA.

For the first three quarters, the new-look Buckeyes played the old-school brand of football Ohio State was famous for. But with just over two minutes left on the clock, the Bruins led by three and the Buckeyes knew the time had come to make their move. Five straight completions moved the offense onto UCLA’s doorstep. The sixth knocked it in and marked the onset of a new era in Ohio State football.
