It seemed like all of Buckeye Nation was rooting extra hard for Johnnie Dixon this season. The fifth-year senior has battled injuries his entire career, and almost quit after three seasons in Columbus. But he opted to come back anyway and, this season, finally had a year worthy of the work he’s put in with the program. This year, he had 40 receptions for 642 yards and seven touchdowns, putting him at 65 catches for 1,119 yards and 15 scores in his four-season career in Columbus. He went over (well-over) the 1,000-yard mark with his 129-yard performance in the Big Ten Championship game against Northwestern.
