Countdown To Kickoff: Michael Thomas

Just THREE days until the Buckeyes take on The Oregon State Beavers at high noon in The Shoe. A former No. 3, Michael Thomas was one of the most sure-handed receivers in Ohio State history and was on the receiving end of one of the most iconic plays in Ohio State history.

Thomas came to Ohio State at the same time Cardale Jones did, from the same academy as well, and he did not disappoint during his time. Thomas played in 39 games catching 113 passes for 1,602 yards with 18 touchdowns and a long of 79 yards. No catch however was as good or as important as the one he caught from Evan Spencer in the 2014 playoff game against Alabama.
That gave the Buckeyes, who were trailing, some much-needed momentum heading into the second half.
