Mike Doss named honorary Ohio State captain for Peach Bowl

When you think of all-time Ohio State greats, Mike Doss has to be right there close to the top. Doss, who could have left Columbus after a stellar junior season, chose to come back and take care of some unfinished business for his senior year. And he certainly delivered giving Buckeye Nation its first national championship since 1968.

Now the former legend of the ‘Shoe and recent College Football Hall of Fame inductee will be on the field once again. 20 years after taking Ohio State to the promised land, Doss will be standing at midfield for the coin flip as an honorary Buckeye captain for the Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl semi-final matchup against Georgia.
