Starting Braxton Miller Could Give Ohio State an Edge for Title Defense

There were less than 90 seconds remaining in the fourth quarter of Ohio State's Orange Bowl matchup against Clemson when Braxton Miller, trying to lead a last-minute rally, was picked off by Tigers linebacker Stephone Anthony.

That play sealed the Buckeyes' second consecutive loss to close out the 2013 season—a stretch that snapped a historic 24-game winning streak. It was also the last play Miller took part of as the starting quarterback at Ohio State.

Since then, he has watched from the sideline as not one, but two quarterbacks took the reins of his team and orchestrated a championship run that he's never completed during his collegiate career.
