Marvin Harrison Jr. is leading the way for Ohio State’s receivers once again. He scored the first touchdown of the game for the Buckeyes.

C.J. Stroud trusted Harrison on a contested throw that led to a touchdown. Stroud caught a 19-yard touchdown pass to break the 0-0 tie. There was pass interference called on the play, but it didn’t matter as Harrison had already scored.

Harrison has done a good job making up for the production that Jaxon Smith-Njigba had before his injury. Emeka Egbuka has been doing a good job filling in as well. Egbuka and Harrison are on pace to both have 1,000+ receiving yard seasons.

At this point last season the Buckeyes had one loss. The addition of defensive coordinator Jim Knowles has been a good move so far for the Buckeyes as well. Ohio State has not allowed more than 21 points per game through five games.

Ohio State and Michigan State are currently playing on ABC.
