Thanks for sharing your memories, Spiny Norman. Given that my awareness of Stanford sports started with that 1980 season, I think that win over OU was the biggest road win until Stanford beat #1 Notre Dame in South Bend in 1990. Of course, the Ralston and Harbaugh-Shaw glory years had more.

Stanford over Ohio State in Columbus in 1982 was a pretty big deal too! <snip>

Stanford-Ohio State was September 25, 1982. I was flying back to Stanford that day for my junior year. 3-hour drive to Kansas City, connection in Denver, onward to SFO. When I landed in Denver (anyone else remember Stapleton Airport with the world's largest pinball machine?) the game was just starting. I had to board my flight to SFO just as the first half was ending and Stanford was down 13-0. I didn't mind missing the second half because I was convinced that Stanford was going to lose, but the first thing my dormmate said when he met me at the arrival gate was "what a great win over Ohio State!" It was only then that I learned about the Elway-led comeback.
