Maryland simply had no answer for Jeremiah Smith today, as the Ohio State star wideout dropped another highlight reel on us. He is absolutely going off, with three receptions for 81 yards and two touchdowns already, but one of those catches? Man, it was next-level insane, showing everyone exactly why he is one of the best players in college football, no debate.
That One-Handed Magic Was Pure Filth
That insane catch, dude. Smith ran a short route across the field, and the pass was behind him, no problem. He snagged it with one hand, made it look absolutely effortless. Then, because he is Jeremiah Smith, he beat a defender and tacked on extra yards. It was ridiculous, a crazy one-handed grab that looked so easy you had to rewind it twice to believe it. This is the kind of stuff that makes you jump off the couch. It was pure filth.
The Heisman Hype Is More Than Just Talk
This isn’t a one-game fluke either. Smith has been showing out all season. He is arguably the best wide receiver in football, period. Coming into today’s game, he already piled up 44 receptions for 823 yards and nine touchdowns. Think about that for a second. He is on pace to bag his third straight 1,000-yard season, which is just absurd consistency, and he’s only a few more touchdown receptions from tying his single-season high of 15. The man scored a touchdown against Illinois on September 26, too, just a few weeks ago. If you are asking who the top favorite for the Heisman Trophy is at year’s end, it’s gotta be Smith. He has set multiple Ohio State records in a dominant win over Iowa earlier this season, proving he is a record-breaker.
Bucks Rolling Into a Massive Showdown
Ohio State is currently dominating, up 31-10 in the third quarter against Maryland. That’s a good spot to be in, and they are looking solid to move to 5-1 on the season. If they close this out, they’ll head into next week’s massive showdown against Indiana with some serious momentum. That game is going to be HUGE, and you know Smith is gonna be front and center.
Keep your eyes locked on Smith and the Buckeyes as they roll into that Indiana game next week. He is not just chasing wins, he is chasing history, with that Heisman Trophy looking more and more like it has his name on it. What a talent.
