But the day belonged to Ohio State receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, who hauled in a monster 347 receiving yards that set the FBS bowl-game record. Smith-Njigba did it on 15 catches, including scoring three touchdowns. Quarterback C.J. StroudUtah's Britain Covey provided some first-half fireworks when he ran back a kickoff 97 yards to the house.
