POLL: Which receiver was most impressive in 2024? (W/VIDEO)

Texas receiver Matthew Golden hauls in a pass that set the Longhorns up for what would've been a game-tying score late in Friday night's Goodyear Cotton Bowl, but Texas, who had a first-and-goal shortly after this play, would fumble the ball to Ohio State linebacker Jack Sawyer and lose the game, 28-14. Ohio State advanced to the College Football Playoff National Championship Game in Atlanta, Ga., on Jan. 20. But Golden is one of so many talented receivers in college football. If you could choose just one, who would it be? (Photo by ALEX NABOR - THE FOOTBALL BEAT)
