Perfect Single-Game Defensive Performances Turned In By Ohio State Football Players

After New York Yankees pitcher Domingo German threw just the 24th perfect game in Major League History a couple weeks ago, I began wondering which performances by Ohio State football players could win an argument as being perfect games on the gridiron.

In baseball, the definition of a perfect game is inarguable. It's 27 up, 27 down. No baserunners allowed for any reason.

As I wrote last week when summarizing some individual Buckeye offensive performance worth discussion of perfection, there's of course no real definition of what constitutes a perfect game in football.

Frankly, out of the those single-game offensive performances by Ohio State players, I don't think any of them truly met the strictest definition of perfection.
