Ohio State's 59-3 victory over Kent State highlighted several aspects of the team's performance. First, freshman receiver Jeremiah Smith set a record with 32 touchdown receptions in just 31 career games, showcasing his exceptional athleticism and talent. Smith's stats outshine those of established NFL players such as Julio Jones and Calvin Johnson, indicating his potential to become a star in the league.

Second, Ohio State's offensive issues on short yardage and fourth downs were evident against Kent State, suggesting that the team still needs to improve in these areas. Third, freshman Chris Henry Jr. demonstrated his skills with a 75-yard touchdown, highlighting his potential to become a key playmaker for the team. Fourth, the skillful backup receivers Brandon Inniss and Devin McCuin need to step up and provide additional passing options for quarterback Julian Sayin, who has yet to find his rhythm this season.

Finally, the young talent on Ohio State's defense is promising, with starters Devin Sanchez, Jay Timmons, Khary Wilder, and Riley Pettijohn, indicating that the team's defense will likely improve in the coming games.
