Will Howard was one of the week’s best quarterbacks in college football.

The Ohio State quarterback was selected as one of the Davey O’Brien Award’s “Great 8” quarterbacks for Week 6, recognizing him as one of the top eight signal-callers in the country for his performance in the Buckeyes’ 35-7 win over Iowa.

Howard earns the honor for the first time this season after an efficient performance against the Hawkeyes in which he had more total touchdowns (five) than incompletions (four). Howard completed 21 of 25 passing attempts for 209 yards and four touchdowns, with one interception, while he also ran for 28 yards and another touchdown.
