With Ohio State banged up at the skill positions, Ohio State needs Marvin Harrison Jr. to be Marvin Harrison Jr. to beat Penn State on Saturday.
Hold on to your butts, folks. Yeah, the Notre Dame win was a big one but this Saturday's clash between No. 3 Ohio State and No. 7 Penn State in Ohio Stadium is an even greater matchup considering the B1G East standings implications and therefore College Football Playoff significance.
Well, I think number one, the thing that jumps out to me is his body control and ball skills. He's got the ability to contort his body in the positions and catch the ball effortlessly. I think that's the first thing. That said, all 10 of his catches in State College went for first downs and he caught four balls on five targets on third down plays for 74 yards. The first, a 37-yard strike on 3rd-and-10 set up an OSU field goal on the game's first possession. The last, a 12-yard hookup via a slant route on 3rd-and-10, paved the way for TreVeyon Henderson's 7-yard touchdown run making it 37-24 Buckeyes with 2:52 left in regulation.
