WATCH: True freshman Kyle McCord connect with Jaxon Smith-Njigba for the score

In a game where there is no tackling, the offenses seem to be a little more comfortable. And in a quarterback competition trying to replace one of the best ever at Ohio State in Justin Fields, all three QBs have looked sharp.

So far C.J. Stroud has thrown two touchdowns and now true freshman Kyle McCord has joined the party. McCord led the offense down the field efficiently and then hit sophomore Jaxon Smith-Njigba with a nice little fade route in the back corner of the endzone.

Check out the excellent touch from McCord and outstanding concentration from Smith-Njigba for the score. Plays are being made all over the field from the pass-catches of Ohio State. I’d hate to be a defensive coordinator trying to gameplan how to slow down OSU’s passing game this fall.
