Ohio State quarterback Will Howard is one of 10 finalists for the Johnny Unitas Golden Arm Award, which honors college football’s top upperclassman quarterback.
The Ohio State quarterback was named Thursday as one of 10 finalists for theHoward is joined on the list of finalists by the quarterback he’ll go head-to-head with this weekend – Penn State’s Drew Allar – as well as Georgia’s Carson Beck, Ole Miss’ Jaxson Dart, Texas’ Quinn Ewers, Oregon’s Dillon Gabriel, Clemson’s Cade Klubnik, Indiana’s Kurtis Rourke, Colorado’s Shedeur Sanders and Miami’s Cam Ward.
Howard has completed at least 80% of his passing attempts in four of Ohio State’s last five games, and whether he can keep it going this weekend could go a long way toward determining if the fourth-ranked Buckeyes can defeat No. 3 Penn State. The Pennsylvania native will certainly be motivated to play at his best as he faces off against his home-state school.
“I grew up a Penn State fan. I wanted to go there my whole life. They didn't think I was good enough. I guess we'll see next week if I was,” Howard said following Ohio State’s win over Nebraska last Saturday.
