Ohio State seeks help for WR Jeremiah Smith after Texas loss

Ohio State faces challenges in the wake of a 24-23 loss to Texas, with wide receiver Jeremiah Smith having an inconsistent game. Smith initially excelled, recording 164 receiving yards on eight catches, but failed to add any statistics after a significant 43-yard catch. With Smith being heavily targeted, other wide receivers struggled to contribute, recording only two catches for 24 yards combined. Coach Ryan Day emphasized the need for more offensive balance and to reduce Smith's solitary burden. The Buckeyes have four weeks before a matchup against Indiana to enhance their passing game and diversify their receiving options.
