Ohio State fans remember what Cardale Jones did in relief for J.T. Barrett in 2014. This year, Haskins adds his name to heroic QB performances in relief for an injured starting quarterback.
The numbers are unremarkable and no one would confuse them for O'Brien Award numbers. The 94 passing yards are 82 yards shy of what Barrett had in 2014 after completing 13 passes on 21 attempts. Barrett may have had the better overall game in 2015 after considering his 139 rushing yards. Still, Haskins' 94 yards on 6/7 passing was good enough for a QB rating of 198.
