Ohio State should give CJ Saunders more opportunities:

COLUMBUS, OH – SEPTEMBER 23: C.J. Saunders
COLUMBUS, OH – SEPTEMBER 23: C.J. Saunders /

Coming into the season, and even into the UNLV game, CJ Saunders seemed like an after thought. The walk-on Junior from just outside of Columbus would not have been given any opportunity on Saturday if the game was not as big of a blowout as it was. But fortunately the game was not close and he got over a half of football to play.

In that time, Saunders put up 6 receptions for 102 yards and a touchdown. Saunders looked like one of the Buckeyes best receivers in the win. If Saunders can play half as well for the rest of the season as he did Saturday, the Buckeyes could have a potential stud on their hands.
