Just another reason why the NFL Draft is the premier offseason event in football.
Sermon’s big postseason at Ohio State helped catapult his draft stock. He piled up 331 rushing yards and scored 2 touchdowns in Ohio State’s 22-10 win over Northwestern in the B1G Championship Game. In the Sugar Bowl victory against Clemson, Sermon rushed for 193 yards, had 61 receiving yards and scored another touchdown to help lead the Buckeyes to the national championship.
