Facing fourth down, quarterback C.J. Stroud lofted a ball in Wilson’s direction and asked him to make a play in single coverage. That’s exactly what Wilson did, giving the Buckeyes the lead in the process.

Here’s the play:

That is Wilson’s fifth touchdown catch of the year, which is one off of a career high. He had six TD grabs last season in only 8 games.

Wilson has established himself as one of the best skill players in the entire Big Ten. He’s averaging 17.8 yards per reception this season, which is a career best. He now has 16 touchdown grabs in his career.

Ohio State is looking to improve to 5-1 on the season and 7-0 all-time against Maryland. If the Buckeyes win out, they’ll likely still be in position to make a run at the College Football Playoff despite falling to Oregon in Week 2.
