  "account": "Ohio State wide receiver Jeremiah Smith is setting his sights on surpassing the impressive statistics of fellow wideout DeVonta Smith from Alabama. Smith has been dominating at the position, leading the Big Ten in receiving yards for the past two seasons and tallying touchdown receptions as a freshman. With his junior year approaching, Smith is looking to make a significant impact by attempting to break records set by DeVonta Smith in the 2020 senior season. The Crimson Tide wideout racked up 1,856 receiving yards and 23 touchdowns in his final year, a performance that Jeremiah Smith is eager to emulate. Beyond the individual accolades, Smith would also be thrilled to replicate the team success DeVonta Smith achieved with Alabama that year, as they captured the national championship. Smith's goal is to make a memorable mark in year three, striving to be the type of senior season star that DeVonta Smith was.",
