Ohio State 10 Oregon 7
Woody Hayes returns for another triumph as his Ohio State Buckeyes (8-1) create further Western despair with a 10-7 victory over Len Casanova's inspired Oregon Ducks (7-3). It isn't easy for Hayes' men who are outgained and out-first-downed by Oregon, led by quarterback Jack Crabtree (10 of 17 passing). Ohio State pulls it out with a 34-yard field goal by Don Sutherin in the fourth quarter. Frank Kremblas of Ohio State and Jim Shanley of Oregon match earlier touchdowns. Ron Stover is Oregon's pass catching phenom with 10 grabs, but his costly fumble ends Oregon's comeback hopes.
