Ohio State v Iowa recap, results: Jeremiah Smith sets Buckeyes records for TDs, catches in win

Fifth-ranked Ohio State secured a 31-14 victory over fourteenth-ranked Iowa after junior wide receiver Jeremiah Smith delivered a historic performance. Smith broke program records for career touchdown receptions by passing Chris Olave with his thirty-sixth score, and later surpassed Emeka Egbuka to claim the all-time receptions mark with his two hundred sixth career catch.

He finished the contest with eleven receptions totaling 206 yards and two touchdowns, briefly celebrating the second score with a Heisman Trophy pose as he builds a campaign for the prestigious award. Quarterback Julian Sayin also bolstered his own Heisman consideration by completing twenty of twenty--seven pass attempts for 324 yards and three touchdowns.

The triumph improved Ohio State's standing following a previous outing where Smith registered twelve catches for 217 yards and four touchdowns against Illinois. Smith's ongoing campaign aims to make him the first wide receiver to claim the top college football accolade since DeVonta Smith achieved the feat for Alabama in 2020.
