Ohio State freshman quarterback Braxton Miller (who’s birthday is today) has been named the Big Ten Conference’s Thompson-Randle El Freshman of the Year certainly a gift well deserved.
Braxton Miller threw for 997 yards this season with 11 touchdowns and only four interceptions while rushing for 695 yards and 7 touchdowns.
Braxton will receive the Thompson-Randle El Freshman of the Year award Friday in Indianapolis as part of the Big Ten championship game’s weekend of activities.
