Ohio State Buckeyes running back Ezekiel Elliott burst onto the scene in 2014 as one of the top running backs in the nation and now he enters 2015 as the Heisman Trophy favorite.
Elliott, who is entering his junior year, has over 2,000 rushing yards in his Buckeyes career. However, an incredible 1,878 of those yards came during his sophomore campaign as he helped to lead Ohio State to a national championship.
The St. Louis native found his way to Ohio State as a four-star recruit out of John Burroughs School in Missouri where he was a three-sport athlete.
