Two Key Players For Ohio State
Jaxon Smith-Njigba: Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson get all the publicity, and rightfully so as two possible first-round NFL draft picks. But did you know Jaxon Smith-Njigba has a better yards per reception average than both Olave and Wilson. He also is second on the team in average yards receiving per game? There’s just too much talent in Zone 6 to contain them all, and Smith-Njigba continues to shine in Olave and Wilson’s shadows.

Zach Harrison – Defensive End: When following the Bosa brothers and Chase Young, sometimes it’s hard to find your own way. Zach Harrison is starting to live up to the five-star billing he had coming into Ohio State. While the stats may not look impressive on paper, Harrison is doing many of the things that sometimes go unnoticed. Harrison could have a big day in the Nittany Lions backfield.
