         CONGRATULATING THE OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY FOOTBALL TEAM

                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. STEVE STIVERS

                                of ohio

                    in the house of representatives

                      Wednesday, December 5, 2012

  Mr. STIVERS. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate The Ohio State 
University football team on a perfect record during the 2012 season. 
The Buckeyes have now recorded six undefeated seasons in a 123-year 
history. The determination of this team to win, despite the fact that a 
postseason was not possible, is truly inspiring.
  I would also like to commend Head Coach Urban Meyer on his success 
with the Buckeyes in his first season with the team. Coach Meyer has 
shown Ohio State fans that he means business and I look forward to many 
more perfect seasons under Coach Meyer's watch.
  In Columbus, football is a tradition and we take it very seriously--
the Buckeyes' perfect season proves that once again. The football team 
at Ohio State means so much to the people of Ohio and we are truly 
proud of their perfect season this year. Go Bucks!
