Countdown to Kickoff: Holy Buckeye Michael Jenkins

The Buckeyes return to the field in 12 days. We open the season facing an Oregon State team that only won one game last year. They lost to teams like Colorado State, Portland State, and Minnesota. It’s probably safe to say that we will return to the field in dominating fashion.

Our favorite No. 12 is Michael Jenkins. The three-year starter for the Ohio State Buckeyes and a first-round pick of the Atlanta Falcons in 2004 will always be known for his "Holy Buckeye" catch from Craig Krenzel in the national championship season of 2002.

He had 165 catches for 2,898 yards (breaking David Boston's career mark) and 16 touchdowns during his time in Columbus.

It should be noted that in spite of being the most successful WR in the B1G during his time, he was never more than a second-team conference honoree. He is eighth all-time in career receiving yards in the B1G.
