EVEN WINNING ISN'T ENOUGH

In 1952, Ohio State pulled upset wins over Illinois and arch rival Michigan by identical 27-6 scores. Woody Hayes then bumped into a lady and had the following conversation:

"This nice lady came up to me," said Hayes, "and asked, 'What was the score of Illinois game?' and I said, '27-6.' The she asked, 'What was the score of your Michigan game?' and I said '27-6."

She commented, 'You aren't making much improvement, are you?'"
