COLUMBUS, Ohio — Ohio State wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. won the Biletnikoff Award, given to the best receiver in college football each year.

Harrison led the Buckeyes with 15 total touchdowns, 67 catches and 1,211 yards. LSU's Malik Nabers and Washington's Rome Odunze are also finalists this year.

This is the second straight year Harrison was a finalist for the award. 

Harrison was also a finalist for the Heisman Trophy. No Buckeye wide receiver has ever won college football's most prestigious award.

The junior was also voted as the Graham-George Offensive Player of the Year and the Richter-Howard Receiver of the Year.

Harrison Jr. also set a record this year by becoming the first Buckeye in program history to have 15 100-yard receiving games.

Terry Glenn was the first and only Buckeye to win the award in 1995.

A reception to honor the 2023 winner was held in Florida on March 9.
