Marvin Harrison Jr. celebrates TD like Saquon Barkley to troll Penn State

Marvin Harrison Jr.’s touchdown put Ohio State ahead of Penn State 20-6, but it was the celebration that caught attention.

To troll the Nittany Lions, Harrison Jr. echoed former Penn State great Saquon Barkley with his touchdown celebration. He decided to wave his arms and run around the end zone, as Barkley did and still does with the New York Giants.

You can see the celebration below.

Harrison Jr. finished the contest with 11 catches for 162 yards and a touchdown. Safe to say, Harrison Jr. drew a big reaction out of the home crowd after that score that essentially decided the game.

The Buckeyes hung on for the 20-12 win.

Marvin Harrison Jr. talks NFL future post-Ohio State

Most expect him to be selected in the top five on next year’s draft. Still, Harrison Jr. insists that he’s not thinking about his NFL future at this point.

Instead, Harrison Jr.’s only focus is on helping Ohio State reach the College Football Playoff and potentially win a national title.

“I’m worried about this year and doing the best that I can and finishing out this year helping my team win,” Marvin Harrison Jr. said on The Pat McAfee Show on Friday. “But next year, we’ll see wherever it takes me. Continue to work hard and do the best that I can.”

Buckeyes coach Ryan Day spoke about his star receiver on The Pat McAfee Show on Friday.

“You talk about a special young man, he’s special,” Day said. “You know, his work ethic and what he’s done in setting a standard here the last couple of years has been tremendous. I’ve really got to give him a lot of credit. And you know, our whole team.”

He’s glad to have someone like Marvin Harrison Jr. on his side.

“This game is about players. And we have a really good team. We do. Our kids are working hard. They put it in every single week. And so now we’ve gotta go put it on the field on Saturday,” Day said. “But yea, this is a fun team to be around. It’s a veteran team, it’s a gritty team. And we’ve got to go play that way on Saturday. We’ve gotta play angry. We’ve gotta play with an edge to us. Because we know it’s going to go four quarters. That’s the way it’s going to go. … We’ve gotta come out swinging and then play four quarters.”
