By the time his career is finished, J.T. Barrett will hold a number of records at Ohio State. The one he set Saturday against Rutgers was just another bullet point added to his resume.
With a second-quarter touchdown pass to Marcus Baugh, Barrett moved past Bobby Hoying to become Ohio State's all-time leader in touchdown passes. Hoying's old record was 57, and after Barrett's four-touchdown day, the redshirt junior currently has 59 career touchdown passes.
"I think it's just a great honor being that our tradition at Ohio State here is so rich and we do, just thinking about football, there's so many great players that have been through Ohio State," Barrett said after the game.
