Julian Sayin has been named the starting quarterback for the Ohio State Buckeyes for the upcoming NCAAF season, as announced by head coach Ryan Day.

Sayin is a redshirt freshman this upcoming year with Ohio State after spending last season as Will Howard's backup. Howard, who was drafted by the Steelers in the NFL draft back in April, led the Buckeyes to the 2024 national title. Ohio State will be looking to defend that title this upcoming season with Sayin now leading the charge.

Ryan Day announced on Monday that redshirt freshman Julian Sayin would be the starting quarterback for Ohio State in the 2025 season.

The upcoming NCAAF season will kick off with a marquee matchup between Steve Sarkisian’s Texas Longhorns and the Ohio State Buckeyes, now led by Julian Sayin.

Texas football star Colin Simmons seems to be feeling good about Ohio State naming Julian Sayin its starting QB.

The Ohio State Buckeyes are officially entrusting their repeat title chances to Julian Sayin, which might come with some trepidation. But despite the lack of experience, PFF loves what he brings to the table.
