Where do Ohio State quarterbacks rank in the best of the 2000s?

ESPN took a stab at ranking the top 60 quarterbacks in the college game from 2000 on. What Ohio State QBs appear on the list, and where?

No. 5 out of 60 – Joe Burrow (Ohio State 2016-2017, LSU 2018-2019)

What ESPN says

“After a decent first season as LSU’s starter, Burrow simply unleashed the best passing season we’ve ever seen in college football. He threw for 5,671 yards and 60 touchdowns, produced almost as many rushing touchdowns (five) as interceptions (six) and led the Tigers — who had gone eight years without a top-five finish — to a 15-0 record and national title. His 2019 was good enough to stand up next to Cam Newton’s 2010. There is no greater compliment than that.”
