With a win over USC in the Cotton Bowl, the J.T. Barrett era at Ohio State is officially closed. It seems like he has been with the program forever, having been one of the few Ohio State quarterbacks to start the majority of four seasons, which makes replacing him all the more daunting. Redshirt freshman Dwayne Haskins would seem to be the heir apparent. Haskins has seen time in several games this season, but no performance was more pivotal than his minutes in the Buckeyes’ regular season finale versus Michigan. After Barrett left the game due to injury, Haskins completed Ohio State’s comeback to give the Buckeyes their sixth-straight win over the Wolverines.
