Dwayne Haskins is unlikely to capture the Heisman Trophy, but he may very well find himself in New York this month. After shattering numerous Ohio State and Big Ten passing records, the Buckeyes' signal-caller is already off to a hot start against Northwestern.
Haskins danced around and connected with Terry McLaurin to get the scoring started in Indianapolis, and it was easily one of his finest plays of the season. It was reminiscent of what we saw from Troy Smith just over a decade ago.

Northwestern got on the board shortly thereafter to knot things up 7-7 midway through the first quarter. It was also a milestone for Terry McLaurin as he's now hauled in 10 touchdown passes on the season.
