Ohio State's C.J. Stroud, Julian Fleming, Cade Stover Preview Penn State

The Buckeyes hit the road for just the second time this season and one of the most hostile environments in the country awaits.
In this story:

Ohio State quarterback C.J. Stroud, wide receiver Julian Fleming, tight end Cade Stover, offensive guard Donovan Jackson, defensive ends Javontae Jean-Baptiste and Caden Curry and linebacker Cody Simon met the media on Wednesday night to preview Saturday’s game at Penn State.

The players discussed a wide variety of topics, including Stroud’s recollection of the 2020 game without fans, Fleming’s 79-yard touchdown catch against Iowa, Stover’s leap over a defender, Jackson’s mindset following the fumble recovery for a touchdown, Jean-Baptiste’s growth within the defense and much more.
