Pat Fitzgerald Would Vote Dwayne Haskins for Heisman, Calls Ohio State's Offense “Scary” and Accepts Northwestern's Underdog Status

While Ohio State coach Urban Meyer held his press conference to preview the Big Ten Championship Game on Monday, Northwestern coach Pat Fitzgerald did too, and he had plenty of praise for the Buckeyes, particularly their offense and quarterback Dwayne Haskins.

Over the course of his nearly 20-minute meeting with the media on Monday, which you can watch in the video above, Fitzgerald said he would cast his ballot for Haskins if he had a Heisman Trophy ballot, described Ohio State's offense as "scary" and acknowledged his team's status as the underdog for Saturday's game, quipping that he wasn't even sure whether his own family members would pick Northwestern to win Saturday's game in Indianapolis.
