Jeremiah Smith vs. Iowa’s secondary decided the game
Jeremiah Smith caught 11 passes for 206 yards and two touchdowns, breaking Ohio State's career records for receptions and touchdown catches as the Buckeyes pulled away from No. 14 Iowa, 31-14.
Iowa's defense was considered one of the best in the country heading into Saturday's game against Ohio State. They were allowing just eight points and 152 passing yards per game. However, Ohio State's star wide receiver Jeremiah Smith proved too much for the Hawkeyes. Smith caught 11 passes for 206 yards and two touchdowns, despite Iowa's efforts to contain him.
The Buckeyes used Smith's performance to dominate the game, combining for 484 total yards, more than doubling Iowa's output of 238 total yards. Smith's 206 receiving yards were more than the entire Hawkeyes' passing attack produced. Smith's exceptional performance secured Ohio State's 31-14 victory over No. 14 Iowa.
