Impact Smith caught his sixth touchdown pass of the season when he made yet another leaping, one-handed grab on a four-yard score early in the third quarter. The star true freshman has now caught a touchdown in all five games this season, and he also logged his second rushing attempt of the year Week 6. Smith's immediate ascendance as one of the sport's best wideouts has only been tamped down by the presence of graduate senior wideout Emeka Egbuka, who's accrued a team-high 40 targets to Smith's 28 through the first five games of the season. Smith does however lead the team in receiving yards with 453 compared to Egbuka's 433. They'll likely both need to have strong performances in order for the Buckeyes to get a road win against No. 3 Oregon this coming Saturday.
