Ohio State Quarterback C.J. Stroud Finalist for Heisman Trophy for Second Straight Year

C.J. Stroud is a Heisman Trophy finalist for the second year in a row.

The Ohio State quarterback was named Monday as one of four finalists for this year’s award along with USC quarterback Caleb Williams, Georgia quarterback Stetson Bennett and TCU quarterback Max Duggan.

Stroud becomes Ohio State’s first two-time finalist for the Heisman Trophy since the Heisman Trust began inviting multiple finalists to the ceremony in 1982. Of course, Ohio State running back Archie Griffin became the first and still only two-time winner of the Heisman when he won it in back-to-back years in 1974 and 1975.
