A look back at Ohio State’s top plays of the 2021 season, including Jerron Cage’s scoop-and-score and C.J. Stroud’s fourth-quarter Rose Bowl touchdown pass to Jaxon Smith-Njigba.
10. Emeka Egbuka makes toe-tapping sideline grab
The next two plays on this list both come in the form of over-the-shoulder sideline catches, starting with one made in the final game of the season. With the Buckeyes trailing Utah 14-0 and needing a spark, Stroud threw a rainbow 30 yards downfield and Egbuka played it perfectly, reaching out into out-of-bounds territory while keeping a foot down in green grass to haul in the pass – Ohio State’s first big play of the game, which would set up its first touchdown and ultimately start the Buckeyes’ Rose Bowl comeback.
Although he came up one yard short of a touchdown on this catch, it was no less impressive of a play as he caught the ball over his outside shoulder just inside the boundary and managed to get one foot down in bounds with firm possession of the ball before his momentum carried him out of bounds for a 27-yard reception that was one of the most impressive of his Buckeye career.The answer is no.
