Smith sets Ohio State career receiving mark as 6th-ranked Buckeyes roll past Kent State 59-3

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- , Jeremiah Smith became Ohio State's career receiving yardage leader, Ja’Kobi Jackson scored twice and the sixth-ranked Buckeyes rolled to a 59-3 victory over Kent State on Saturday. Ohio State (2-1) took immediate control, scoring on its first four drives as it rebounded after last week's 24-23 loss at No. 1 Texas where it squandered a 20-point, fourth-quarter lead. “You’re looking for a response out of a group of guys coming off of last week, which I thought we did. And regardless of the opponent, you want clean execution on offense and you want a bunch of running and hitting on defense, and energy and passion and violence running around, which I thought we did,” coach Ryan Day said. Smith had five receptions for 85 yards.
