According to ESPN's Brett McMurphy, Ohio State quarterback Braxton Miller will miss the 2014 season.

The Ohio State quarterback reinjured his surgically repaired throwing shoulder on Monday, a serious blow to Ohio State's national championship hopes.

Miller is 28-8 as Ohio State's starter and has led the Buckeyes to 24 consecutive regular-season wins. The dual-threat QB has totaled 3,054 rushing yards and 32 TDs and was expected to be among the Heisman Trophy frontrunners this year. Miller missed two games in 2013 and was replaced by Kenny Guiton.

Ohio State would have to turn to either redshirt freshman J.T. Barrett or third-year sophomore Cardale Jones as a replacement. The two split reps in Miller's absence in spring practice.

J.T. Barrett is going to get first looks as the starter. Barrett won the back-up role last week.

The interesting thing is that this could have a larger impact with the Big 10 and this years playoff. Ohio State have the real possibility of losing a handful of games 2-4 now and that will bring down the perception of the Big-10 this year.

I don't think this will be much of a factor. The redshirt freshman is pretty good and their schedule is WAC like.

Miller says he'll stay in school and won't seek a graduate transfer. Which is interesting with how well his replacement has played.

Who is the starting QB for tOSU next season?
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

Braxton Miller's college eligibility might be over due to an Instagram post...
