WR Chris Olave (1st Team All B1G, 1st Team All-American, New Orleans Saints)

Happy to admit that I was wrong, wrong, wrong about Hartline.

Really looking forward to seeing this young man in the postseason and for the next couple of years in scarlet and gray.

Rewatching the game now. Just got to the block.

If you have the chance to rewatch the play, look at how far he had to come to get that block. Holy cow...

The QB for Minny might be tough to beat but I couldn't be more excited for Chris.

Proof that sometimes rankings aren't everything. Still reminds me so of Devin Smith

Becuse of similaritiy in the last name...., he reminds me of this guy (who wasn't all that bad of wide receiver either):

Just wanted to chime in on how great this young man played. In addition to catching the first two Buckeye TDs, Olave drew a huge pass interference penalty late in the 2nd quarter to overcome the unsportsmanlike bullshit that we had just been called for. Michigan's first real penalty (that false start on 4th and 2 doesn't really count when they didn't seem to want to actually run a play), and most importantly an automatic first down when we had a lot of yards to go. Got us in great position for a quick march down the field for a field goal to stem the momentum shift.

And then he blocked the punt. Game set match.

Think he's happy with his decision to come here instead of UCLA?

 

[Bill Lucas]

A legend in The Game as a true freshman. Wow.

I respect OSU football twitter but they are wrong Olave Offense and ST MVP

 

[youra6]

Olave is another 3 star recruit thats gonna make a huge impact for us. Other WRs on our roster has more talent but Olave executes when it matters. I'll take a guy like him over a 5 star raw prospect any day.

Silkiness reminds me a wee bit of Santonio. Also coming on strong in tail end of freshman season, similar to Holmes.

So I’m guessing he’ll pull down a back of the end zone grab while tapping two feet when only needing one at some point this postseason, to make the comparison complete.

 

[Powair7s]

Was really nice seeing him adjust to the ball on his second TD. He ran around the defender and came back to the ball, that has been missing for awhile.

Wondering how fast this kid is because his speed is deceptive, because Urban said he didn't think they had a player with the speed to get to that punt...but Olave did. Looking forward to more from this young man

Chris Olave has a ton of great football left to play here. A lot. And I look forward to that. But that performance was one of the best I have ever seen in this rivalry, and probably the most unexpected. I mean, wtf saw that coming? I don't even think Chris Olave's parents did. But that is what makes this sport so exiting. Damn great job Mr. Olave. No matter what you do from here on out, you cemented your legacy in this rivalry game. Pretty remarkable.
