  "account": "Ohio State's wide receiver Jeremiah Smith has shattered the Big Ten's all-time receiving touchdowns record, previously held by Michigan's Braylon Edwards with 39 TDs. Smith achieved this milestone on October 31 during a game against USC. He required just one more touchdown to surpass Edwards, who set the record in 2004 while at Michigan. Before Smith's performance, the Ohio State touchdown record stood at 35, a mark set by Chris Olave in a game against Iowa in September.\n\nIf Smith declines his final year of college eligibility following the 2026 season, he is anticipated to be among the top selections in the 2027 NFL Draft. Smith currently leads the Big Ten conference in all-time receiving touchdowns with 40, surpassing records set by Braylon Edwards (36), James Hardy (Indiana, 36), Chris Olave (35), Anthony Carter (Michigan, 33), David Boston (Ohio State, 32), and Marvin Harrison Jr. (Ohio State, Bobby Engram (Penn State), and others tied for ninth with 31.",
