We're counting down the days to kickoff with “99 Warriors,” the greatest Ohio State Buckeyes by jersey number, as voted by the staff of Eleven Warriors.
No. 41 Keith Byars
- Big Ten MVP (1984)
- Consensus All-American (1984)
- Heisman Runner-Up (1984)
Ohio State is tied for the most Heisman Trophy winners and program history, and the Buckeyes could easily have one more after Keith Byars' 1984 season.
Byars saw the field during his freshman season in 1982, but it wasn't until the following year that he really flashed his potential.
