Game program from the November 19, 1949 meeting between Ohio State and host Michigan.  Under former three-time All-American in his third season as head coach, Wes Fesler led Ohio State to a 7-7 tie against the fifth ranked Wolverines.  A late Curly Morrison touchdown knotted the score and helped send the Buckeyes secure a Big Ten title and send Ohio State back to the Rose Bowl for the first time in nearly 30 years. The Buckeyes upset second ranked California to capture their first ever Rose Bowl win to finish the season 7-1-2 and ranked sixth in the country.

Program is complete.
