When was the last time Ohio State won a National Championship in football?

It’s been a little while since the Buckeyes stood on top of the college football world.

C.J. Stroud’s Ohio State Buckeyes are chasing the 2022-23 college football national championship as one of the heavy favorites. But as talented as Ohio State is now and perennially, it hasn’t finished the job in a short while.

The last time Ohio State football won the National Championship was during the 2014 season.

Urban Meyer coached that squad with notable future Sunday talents like Ezekiel Elliott at running back, Joey Bosa at defensive end and Taylor Decker at tackle. Famously, third-string quarterback Cardale Jones led the Buckeyes to a victory in the national championship Game over Marcus Mariota’s Oregon Ducks after respective injuries to Braxton Miller and J.T. Barrett earlier in the year.

Other years the Buckeyes have won national championship in football are: 1942, 1954, 1957, 1961, 1968, 1970 and 2002.
