Stillwagon played for the 1968 Ohio State national championship team, and he won both the Outland Trophy and the Lombardi Award. He was than drafted by the Green Bay Packers in 1971. Then he moved on to play for the Toronto Argonauts. Stillwagon was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame in 1991.
