Broken ankle ends JT Barrett's season for Ohio State
COLUMBUS, Ohio (AP) - Freshman J.T. Barrett, a Heisman Trophy contender, left No. 7 Ohio State's rivalry showdown with Michigan early in the fourth quarter after his right leg twisted underneath him when he was tackled.
The Buckeyes were leading 28-21 when Barrett carried on second and 1 at the Ohio State 33 with 14:45 left in the fourth quarter. He was on the field for 3 minutes before his right leg was put into a temporary air cast and he was lifted onto a cart.
Michigan quarterback Devin Gardner came to his side and spoke to him before he was taken off the field.
Cardale Jones replaced Barrett at quarterback for the Buckeyes.
Barrett ranked fourth in the most recent USA TODAY Sports Heisman Survey. He had scored three touchdowns and amassed 265 of offense vs. Michigan at the time of his injury.
