Ohio State’s offense is already firing on all cylinders.
Despite the absence of No. 1 wideout Jaxon Smith-Njigba due to injury, the Buckeyes have scored at least 49 points in each of their last three contests en route to blowout Big Ten victories.
While Ryan Day has not yet provided an update on Smith-Njigba’s availability for Saturday’s matchup against Iowa, the belief is the standout wideout will return to the field sooner than later. When he suits up again, Ohio State wideout Marvin Harrison Jr. thinks the Buckeyes will be even harder to guard despite their already gaudy numbers.
“I don't know what you do as a defensive coordinator,” Harrison Jr. told reporters Wednesday of Smith-Njigba's potential return. "You gotta pick one (wide receiver to guard) and say your prayers ... It's gonna be fun to watch.”
Harrison Jr. was one of nine OSU players to meet the media Wednesday along with C.J. Stroud, Taron Vincent, Julian Fleming, Lathan Ransom, Ronnie Hickman, Luke Wypler, Dawand Jones and J.T. Tuimoloau.
Check out the following videos to see what they had to say about the matchup against Iowa and where they believe the Buckeyes are at the halfway point of the regular season.
