Smith and Montgomery Shine Preseason | Ohio State Buckeyes Football News

Jeremiah Smith and Luke Montgomery just earned preseason All-American honors, with Smith on first team and Montgomery on second, setting the stage for a historic 2026 season. Smith, already a Big Ten leader with over 2,500 yards and 27 touchdowns in two years, joins an elite Ohio State club as one of only three receivers to hit 1,000 yards twice. He’s also second nationally in receptions. Montgomery anchored the offensive line last year, helping the QB post elite efficiency. Together, they’re part of a rare Ohio State tradition — consistently producing top-tier passers, receivers, and rushers for two straight seasons. With multiple publications naming them among the nation’s best, expectations are sky-high as the Buckeyes prepare to dominate once again.
