C.J. Stroud's performance is going to make the NFL seriously consider whether he deserves...
Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett and Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud speak after the Peach Bowl NCAA college football semifinal playoff game between Georgia and Ohio State, Sunday, Jan. 1, 2023, in Atlanta. Georgia won 42-41. ATLANTA — The portrayal of Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud was of a skilled, but uninventive pocket passer. Stroud shredded that storyline here Saturday night in the semifinals of the College Football Playoff.
His mad dash from the pocket for 27 yards to the Georgia 31-yard line set up a potential game-winning field goal, which missed wide left. That the Buckeyes had a chance on the final possession without All-American receiver Marvin Harrison Jr., and tight end Cade Stover reflected on the Ohio State quarterback.“Between Bryce and C.J., that’s tough, but man, I had C.J. sacked and he looked me in the eye, gave a little move, got away from a sack and completed a pass,” Stackhouse said.
“What this guy did and the way he competed in the second half with all those things coming at him, I just can't say enough,” Ohio State coach Ryan Day said of Stroud. “I'm so proud of the way he played.”Stroud, who was the Big Ten Offensive Player of the Year in 2021 and 2022, is a certain first-round pick in the 2023 draft. He answered some questions about his effectiveness when the pocket collapses.
