You can catch up on all of the Theme Week content here and all of our ”Hype Week” articles here . There are times when an Ohio State game hits harder than others. Obviously, the annual clash against Michigan in late November is a prime example because of the intensity of the rivalry.

Games against Penn State had a lot of the same feels before the Nittany Lions decided nobody in the Big Ten was worthy of being their rival, meaning there would no longer be a yearly battle with the Buckeyes. Memorable Ohio State games that almost make you lose your mind aren’t just limited to football. Once upon a time, the Buckeyes had a men’s basketball team that was a yearly threat to make the Final Four.

Back in the 2007 NCAA Tournament, Ohio State survived an overtime thriller against Xavier on St. Patrick’s Day, and followed it up with a wild comeback against Tennessee. Women’s hockey has made a habit of making the title game, while other sports have, at times, caught the attention of Buckeye Nation.
