Jack Park, a leading Ohio State football historian, checks in each week during the college football season with a retrospective about the Buckeyes.
This season Ohio State is celebrating the 100th anniversary of its 1916 conference title, the first in school history, and its first perfect season (7-0). The Buckeyes will wear throwback uniforms reminiscent of the 1916 season during their home against Nebraska on Nov.5.
Halfback Chic Harley was one several talented sophomores that helped elevate the Buckeyes to this new height of excellence. He became OSU’s first three-time All-American in 1916, '17 and '19, when the school posted a three-year record of 21-1-1.
