Stroud has been by far the best quarterback in the B1G this season, despite going through a couple of rough patches. He’s completing nearly 68% of his passes and has 1,965 yards passing with 22 touchdowns and 3 interceptions in 6 games.
He came off a bye week and lit up the Hoosiers on Oct. 23 for 54 points. Stroud finished with 266 yards passing with 4 touchdowns.
If Stroud can continue this level of play, he may also get more love for the Heisman Trophy down the stretch.
The Buckeyes’ next test will be against No. 20 Penn State this Saturday from Columbus. Kickoff will be at 7:30 p.m. ET.
