Parris Campbell has a bold proclamation about the Ohio State football team’s receiving corps.

As his Indianapolis Colts get ready for Monday Night Football vs. the Baltimore Ravens, wide receiver Parris Campbell took notice of what his alma mater did to Maryland through the air.

The Ohio State football team obliterated the Terrapins to the tune of 66-17. Heisman Trophy hopeful quarterback C.J. Stroud threw for over 400 yards and five touchdowns in the blowout victory. Even more impressive was the elite display the wide receiver trio of Chris Olave, Garrett Wilson and Jaxon Smith-Njigba put together on the Terrpains Saturday. Campbell took notice.

He proclaimed Ohio State to have the best wide receiver corps in the nation, and he is not wrong.

On the afternoon, Olave had seven catches for 120 yards and two touchdowns. Wilson had five grabs for 84 yards and two touchdown receptions. Smith-Njigba had five catches for 84 yards int his rout of Maryland. Not only did Campbell take notice of FOX’s graphic during the game, but former Ohio State standout Terry McLaurin of the Washington Football Team also retweeted it.

Weeks after the tough home loss to Oregon, it seems like Ohio State is back to being Ohio State.
