The Houston Texans are 3-3. What better way to spend a bye week than the college venue where one began to craft their foundation as a dependable quarterback?
C.J. Stroud was in Columbus, Ohio, Saturday to take in Ohio State versus Penn State at Ohio Stadium. Aside from being a consequential showdown between two Big Ten powers, it was an opportunity for Stroud to return to a setting that offered his talents on one of college football’s mammoth platforms.
The No. 2 overall pick stopped by ESPN College GameDay and made a few picks. Whether on TV or in clips on timelines, Stroud generated interested from Twitter. Here are some of the best comments.
Awaiting the inevitable Anchorman-style battle as the College Gameday and Big Noon crews sit 25 yards apart in the north endzone at Ohio Stadium.

Love seeing CJ Stroud as the celebrity picker today on GameDay.

I wish CJ Stroud would just treat Desmond like the trash he is and not even acknowledge his existence on this show. If he tries to say something just don't even look his way, act like he isn't there

All I want is for CJ Stroud to pull out a poster and ask Desmond Howard what formations on the sign…..

Really cool seeing CJ Stroud making picks at The Horseshoe. The last time we saw him at that venue, he was just throwing them.
