Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud is on the very shortlist of players favored to win the Heisman Trophy in 2023, and for good reason. Stroud led all of FBS in Total QBR last season and really came on towards the tail-end of the year. There were some inconsistent struggles early, but even then he was throwing up 300-yard games.
Stroud is back for another year of seasoning that could result in him throwing up some even better numbers. This will be the third season under Ryan Day’s tutelage and despite losing Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson to the first round of the NFL draft, the cupboard is not bare when it comes to wide receivers. Don’t believe us? Just pop on the film from the epic Rose Bowl win over Utah and get back to us.
