After Ohio State completed one of the most insane comebacks in Rose Bowl history to beat Utah 48-45, I firmly placed my tongue in my cheek and tweeted the following:
well that was the best rose bowl game ever played

That might be slight hyperbole, given the 108-year history of the oldest college football bowl game that's decided national champions on multiple occasions (including possibly the actual best game ever played), but it did get me thinking: given Ohio State's own history with the Rose Bowl, where does this 9th Rose Bowl win rank among other Buckeye wins in the Granddaddy Of Them All?
