If anyone still doubts whether Jeremiah Smith is the best player in college football, the Ohio State receiver is doing his best to dissuade them of that notion.
The third-year star is showing why he was the No. 1 overall player of the 2024 recruiting class and a potential consideration for the same honor ahead of the 2027 NFL Draft. Against No. 3 Texas under the lights of primetime, Smith put up eight receptions for 164 yards and a 23-yard score through three quarters.

As Smith continues to showcase his elite size, speed and athleticism against an increasingly beleaguered Texas secondary, here’s a look at his stats and highlights vs. the Longhorns:
- Receptions: Eight
- Yards: 164
- Touchdowns: One
