1972: Ohio State v. Michigan (Drive-Thru)

http://www.ourhonordefend.com

The Wolverines were unbeaten and ranked #3 in the country. They needed only to tie to secure a spot in the Rose Bowl. However, the one-loss #9 Buckeyes foiled the Wolverines 14-11 with some staunch defense, smart running by freshman Archie Griffin and Michigan's unwillingness to trust Mike Lantry with anything.

Wasn't Fred Pagac the def. coordinator for OSU in 1996? I Doug Plank was the guy who they named the 46 DEFENSE by the Chicago Bears?

Thanks for the archives.

Correct on both accounts. Fred Pagac was Woody's starting tight end and, apparently, ended his playing career as the school's all-time leading receiver. Mind you, this was Woody-ball, so that record wasn't much to sneeze at. He became a graduate assistant at Ohio State by 1981. He started off as a GA, working with special teams. When Nick Saban was fired after 1981, he took over the secondary, then apparently moved up to linebackers and eventually took over as defensive coordinator in 1996.
