Marvin Harrison Jr. understands what’s at stake this season for Ohio State. And many of those issues coincide with a successful season for the Buckeyes.

Harrison echoed earlier comments from coach Ryan Day that focused on beating Michigan and being at the top of college football.

“It starts with beating that team up North,” Harrison said on the Big Ten Network. “We haven’t beat them the past 2 years. When you come to Ohio State, that’s the first goal we have as a program. It starts there, beating that team up North. And then it’s getting to the Big Ten championship, winning that, and going on to win the national championship. When you come to Ohio State, it’s natty or bust. You can’t really have a down year or lose any games. An undefeated season – that’s a successful season.”

Harrison is arguably the best wide receiver in the country, and last season made 33 receptions for 538 yards and 6 TDs in 5 games against ranked opponents. If Ohio State reaches the goals he’s outlined, Harrison will need another big season, especially in games against top B1G opponents and in the College Football Playoff.
