Despite what the postseason awards circuit says, Ohio State receiver Jeremiah Smith is still the best receiver — and arguably the best player — in the college game. He and the Buckeyes will be taking all of that talent to the Dallas area to try that notion out again against his hometown college program, the Miami Hurricanes, on December 31 in a CFP quarterfinal matchup in the Cotton Bowl Classic.

Some interesting things came out of the presser, like just how injured Smith was at the end of the regular season, what kind of ailment he was dealing with, what it’ll mean to play against players from South Florida he knows well, and more.
