COLUMBUS, Ohio - The oldest of the Buckeyes sent Ohio State back to the Granddaddy of all bowls.
Devin Barclay, a 26-year-old former pro soccer player, kicked a 39-yard field goal in overtime to give No. 10 Ohio State a 27-24 victory over No. 15 Iowa yesterday and send the Buckeyes to the Rose Bowl for the first time in 13 years.
"None of our kids have gone to the Rose Bowl. I haven't been there in 25 years [since] I was an assistant coach in the 1985 Rose Bowl,'' coach Jim Tressel said. "There's nothing like it. It's a great feeling.''
