Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. had quite a performance in his team’s home win against Arkansas State.
Harrison was C.J. Stroud’s go-to target in the contest, as the versatile wideout simply made the most out of his receptions. Overall, he logged seven receptions for 184 receiving yards and three receiving touchdowns on the day.
Arkansas State’s secondary had no answer for Harrison’s keen speed on the field, and even on one play when the wideout was met with tight coverage, he ended up pulling off an astounding catch.
WHAT A THROW AND WHAT A CATCH 😯

Harrison’s third score of the day was a historic one, as he joined Joey Galloway as the only wideouts in school history to have at least two games with three or more receiving touchdowns. Galloway recorded three receiving touchdowns against Michigan State in 1993 and Purdue in 1994.
Harrison’s other such performance came in the 2022 Rose Bowl Game victory over Utah, where he also logged 71 receiving yards.
For Harrison to accomplish this achievement sure is impressive considering that former teammates Chris Olave and Garrett Wilson did not reach this feat during their respective runs at Ohio State.
In the big picture, Ohio State is off to a convincing start to the season, and it will now turn its attention to a non-conference matchup against Toledo next week.
