Iconic moment
Ten Consecutive Big Sevens and Counting
This was the season the streak stopped being a story and started being an institution — eleven wins, zero losses, and outscoring opponents by a combined 385 to 60. Tommy McDonald and Bo Bolinger anchored a team that had simply stopped losing. Down 6-0 at halftime of the Orange Bowl against Maryland, Wilkinson's men answered with twenty unanswered points, because apparently trailing at the half was just a formality that year.
Part of the 47-game win streak (1953-1957). OSU not on this year's schedule per source page.
