J.T. Barrett is now Ohio State's all-time leader in career passing yards.

With 275 passing yards in Saturday's game against Rutgers, Barrett now has 7,622 passing yards for his career, breaking Art Schlichter's previous school record of 7,547.

Barrett trailed Schlichter by only 200 yards entering Saturday's game. He broke the record in the second quarter on a 13-yard pass to Terry McLaurin.
