WR Jaxson Smith-Njigba stepped up huge for the Buckeyes in the 9 point win over the Huskers. Smith-Njigba had 15 receptions for 240 yards on 16 yards per reception and a touchdown.
In 8 games with the Buckeyes, Wilson has 43 catches for 687 yards on 16 yards per reception with 6 touchdowns on the season.
Ohio State has a brutal 3 game stretch to end the season as they host Purdue this week, and then they play No. 3 Michigan State and top off the year with That Team Up North (Michigan), who is ranked No. 7 right now.
Ohio State’s WRs will need to be key contributors to make it back to Indy and eventually the College Football Playoff this Bowl season.
