Cameras Catch Jeremiah Smith’s Heated Outburst During Ohio State’s Loss
The Heisman hopeful has a lot to be livid over, especially after the crushing 41-28 beat down. Yikes.
During the Oregon Ducks' 41-28 victory over the No. 12 ranked Ohio State Buckeyes, a heated exchange unfolded as fans witnessed the Ducks' dominance. Oregon head coach Dan Lanning's post-game gesture of pointing to the Horseshoe scoreboard following a fourth quarter altercation highlighted the Bucks' struggles. Wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, a Heisman hopeful with seven receptions for 133 yards, displayed his exasperation late in the third quarter.
Following the loss, Smith's prospects of winning the Heisman Trophy seem dimmer as he trails Miami quarterback Darian Mensah and Notre Dame quarterback C.J. Carr. Smith has amassed 69 receptions for 1,200 yards and 14 touchdowns this season, expressing that this might be his final season. Earlier in the game, OSU led 14-0 before surrendering 31 points over the first three quarters.
Smith's only other contribution came in the form of a 32-yard reception that resulted in the Buckeyes' second touchdown in the first quarter. The Ducks ended the game with a 31-point surge in the final quarter. OSU now stands at 6-3 overall and 4-2 in the Big Ten conference, with a home game against Northwestern scheduled for November 14.
