Ohio State boasts one of the most historically dominant football programs in the country. When it comes to the Heisman Trophy, there isn't a school in the NCAA with more. The Buckeyes have seven in total and are tied with Notre Dame and USC.

When you are the proud owner of that kind of hardware, why not show it off a little bit?

The Michigan game countdown

You may have heard that Michigan and Ohio State don't really like each other very much. In fact, the Buckeyes get so geared up to take on their fiercest rivals in the final week of every regular season that the program starts counting down to The Game as soon as the last one is over.

In 2012, the Wolverines were no match for OSU as coach Urban Meyer led his new team to a perfect 12-0 record.

Coach Urban Meyer's resume

Meyer broke the heart of Gator Nation by not only leaving Gainesville, but by leaving in such an abrupt way. However, before he did he led his Florida teams to not one but two national titles. He rode Tim Tebow's back to being named the Coach of the Decade.

Buckeyes fans are looking forward to more of the same from Meyer and soon-to-be junior signal caller Braxton Miller.

Two of Meyer's favorite motivational phrases

The team walks through this doorway to get to their home playing field prior to a game. The Buckeyes walk under the word 'Pride', but it is the signs on the sides that have become trademarks under Meyer.

'Point A to Point B as fast as you can go' and '4-6 seconds of relentless effort and focus' are the coach's two favorite sayings.

An inside look at the Buckeyes locker room

The Buckeyes play their home games in what is affectionately known as The Horseshoe. In 2012, they successfully defended it, as they did not lose a game at home -- or all season, for that matter.

This giant banner inside the Ohio State locker room urges the team to do the same in 2013.
