Most college football fans over the age of 30
remember the game when legendary Ohio State coach Woody Hayes went berserk and punched an opposing player. The incident cost him his job, which he had held for 27 years. The questions are:
1. Who was the player that Hayes struck?
2. What team did he play for?
3. What was his playing position?
4. In what game did the incident occur?
5. What was the final score of the game?
6. What did the guy do that so infuriated
Woody?

Charlie Bauman played for Clemson and he had the audacity to intersept a pass with 2 minutes left from the Buckeye quarterback that sealed Clemson's victory in the 1978 Gator bowl. Clemson won 17-15.

Way to go PARTSDUDE, you are absolutely correct. reedman, even though you didn't get all the particulars right, that was pretty remarkable off the top of your head. As I remember it Woody landed a pretty nifty uppercut under Bauman's facemask. Maybe he should have gone on to train boxers!
