This time around, Stroud will look to have an even better game with Ohio State’s B1G hopes and a trip to the College Football Playoff in play. While Stroud remains a key candidate for the Heisman, the star QB has repeatedly said his only focus is on doing whatever the team needs in order to get wins.
Last season was the first time since 2011 when Ohio State lost to the team up north. Ohio State has won 17 of the last 19 matchups.
