This season marks five years since Ohio State's national title run, and five years since the Buckeyes' 59-0 pasting of Wisconsin in the Big Ten Championship game which propelled them to the College Football Playoff.
ESPN's Heather Dinich put together an oral history on the game after speaking with a collection of players, coaches and administrators from that legendary performance, including Urban Meyer, Cardale Jones, Ezekiel Elliott and Gene Smith, Michael Thomas, Joey Bosa and other players, as well as some folks from the Wisconsin side and College Football Playoff committee members.
The whole piece is wonderful and a worthy read, but there were without doubt some candid comments and interesting revelations that stuck out, so we compiled a list of our favorites.
