Luke Fahey steps in as Ohio State quarterback after Sayin injury

Ohio State faced Indiana on October 17, and quarterback Julian Sayin was injured during the game, leading to true freshman Luke Fahey taking over for the final three offensive drives. Despite not completing any passes and recording negative rushing yards, Fahey's performance helped secure a 19-15 victory. With Sayin's status uncertain, Fahey could become the shortest starting quarterback for Ohio State if named the starter against USC on October 31. Fahey, who stands at 5 feet 11 inches, previously played at Mission Viejo High School and was a three-star prospect in the 2026 recruiting class.
