Nebraska Quarterback Tommy Armstrong Jr. Presents Different Dual Threat Challenge to Ohio State's Defense

Even though it feels like Tommy Armstrong Jr. has been Nebraska's quarterback for the better half of a decade, Saturday will be the first time in his career he faces Ohio State.

The prime-time clash between the Buckeyes and Cornhuskers is set to only be the fifth time the two historic programs meet on the gridiron in their illustrious histories. Armstrong Jt. played in nine games as a true freshman in 2013 for the since fired and now Youngstown State Penguin-leading Bo Pelini.

He threw for 966 yards, ran for 202 more and accounted for 11 total touchdowns that year.
