The 'Game of the Century' was what the sportswriters called it, in a 1969 poll commemorating college football's 100th anniversary. It marked the first time that the Ramblers had matched up with Ohio State, and with their luck it happened that going into the game the Buckeyes were unbeaten and considered the top team in the country. And with a second half 13-0 lead it looked as if this ranking were justified---until the comeback began, climaxed by a last minute touchdown pass thrown by a converted All-American halfback named (only in America) William Shakespeare to a great Irish end, a future Washington Redskins coach by the name of Wayne Milner.
