As we count down the rich and storied history of Ohio State football, we look back at the 1925 Buckeyes, who snapped the program's streak of losing seasons—if barely.
John Wilce was still on the hot seat as he entered the 1925 season, his 13th in Columbus and the program's 36th season of college football.
His Buckeyes were in the midst of three consecutive losing seasons for the first time in school history. Thankfully, it would be the last time it happened at Ohio State.
