Week 8 of college football is in the books with some big-time performances that deserve a mention and a look from the Houston Texans. Let’s dive right into it!
C.J. Stroud, quarterback, Ohio State
Despite already being in play to be the first player selected in the 2023 NFL Draft, C.J. Stroud’s outing against Iowa was rather interesting and important for his evaluation. Against one of the best and most organized defensive units in the country, Stroud struggled in the first half, especially against pressure. In the second half though, Stroud bounced back in a major way, putting together jaw-dropping throws and being effective and cold-blooded when needed.
