Why Ohio State can cover
The Buckeyes have perhaps the best WR duo in the nation. Junior wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. has started the season fast and has two 100-plus receiving-yard games already in 2023. He’s expected to play despite injuring his ankle against Notre Dame. In a 35-7 win over Youngstown State in Week 2, Harrison caught seven passes for 180 yards (22.9 average) and two touchdowns. He followed that up with a five-catch, 126-yard and one-TD effort against Western Kentucky. For the season, he leads the team with 336 yards receiving on 17 catches (19.8 average) and three scores.
Junior wide receiver Emeka Egbuka has also been a hot target. In the win at Notre Dame, he caught seven passes for 96 yards (13.7 average), after scoring a pair of TDs a week earlier. He has a team-high 19 receptions for 263 yards (13.8 average) and three touchdowns. He has a long reception of 28 yards. In three seasons with the Buckeyes, Egbuka has 102 catches for 1,605 yards (15.7 average) and 13 TDs, including 10 in 2022. See which team to pick here.
Why Maryland can cover
Like the Buckeyes, the Terrapins also sport a solid receiver corps. Senior Jeshaun Jones is tops on the team with 19 catches for 319 yards (16.8 average) and two touchdowns. His longest reception was for 64 yards. Jones had a monster game in last week’s 44-17 win over Indiana. He caught six passes for 121 yards (20.2 average). He also had five catches for 96 yards (19.2 average) and a score in a 42-14 win over Virginia on Sept. 15.
Junior Tai Felton was a scoring machine in the win over the Hoosiers. Felton not only caught seven passes for 134 yards (19.1), but he scored three times. He’s nearly eclipsed all of his numbers from last season, when he caught 23 passes for 309 yards (13.4 average) and two TDs. Although he has not returned a kickoff this season, a year ago he returned six kicks for 150 yards (39.0 average). See which team to pick here.
