The top wide receiver groups in the country feature an array of astonishing playmakers.

Here are seven wide receiver rooms that feature astonishing collections of talent.

7 college football teams with stacked wide receiver rooms

7. Colorado Buffaloes

The Buffs have been a wild story to follow, with the Coach Prime era yielding a steady stream of standouts in and out the doors. But Colorado has an outstanding group of receivers. Of course, Travis Hunter, a five-star all-everything player, would be a WR1 anywhere. He caught 57 passes for 721 yards a year ago and should be better.

Add in Vandy transfer Will Sheppard and FAU standout Lajohntay Wester. Wester snagged 108 passes a year ago. Returnee Jimmy Horn Jr. could also be due for a big season. Colorado has a plethora of wide receiver options.

6. Miami Hurricanes

Start a great wide receiver group with the return of Xavier Restrepo (85 grabs for 1,092 yards) and outstanding slot target Jacolby George (eight touchdowns last year). Add in Houston transfer Sam Brown, who was the Cougars' top receiver a season ago (62 receptions, 815 yards). There are also some promising freshmen who could contribute. It's not a deep group, but the quality is impressive.

5. Oregon Ducks

The Ducks return standout Tez Johnson (86 catches for 1,182 yards). They added five-star Texas A&M transfer Evan Stewart, who has plenty of untapped potential (still had 91 catches for 1,162 yards in two years). Jurrion Dickey is a name to remember as a potential standout for 2024. Oregon has a ton of returning and incoming talent and should be explosive.

4. Missouri Tigers

Luther Burden III is possibly the best receiver in the nation. He snagged 86 passes for 1,212 yards a year ago and could be even better. Theo Wease (49 catches for 682 yards) and former Ohio State Buckeye Mookie Cooper (36 catches for 447 yards) both return. The Tigers don't have a ton of depth, but given a top three like this, Mizzou may not need more targets.

3. Texas Longhorns

The Longhorns lost a ton of talent in the wide receiver room, but they have been incredibly active in the transfer portal. Alabama transfer Isaiah Bond was on the verge of breaking through in 2023 (48 catches for 668 yards). Pint-sized Silas Bolden (54 catches for 746 yards) was outstanding at Oregon State and Houston transfer Matthew Golden (38 catches for 404 yards) is also tough.

2. Ohio State Buckeyes

Emeka Egbuka will try to get back to his 2022 form (74 catches for 1,151 yards). Sophomores Brandon Inniss and Carnell Tate should be ready to contribute. But it's true freshman Jeremiah Smith who has people around the program excited. Smith draws comparisons to other OSU freshman standouts and some of the best receivers in football. Ohio State's wide receiver group will be impressive.

1.Ole Miss Rebels

The Rebels under Lane Kiffin will have a brilliant wide receiver group. Returnees Tre Harris and Jordan Watkins both topped 50 catches a year ago. Harris averaged 18.2 yards per catch. South Carolina standout Juice Wells is yet another gamebreaker (68 catches for 928 yards in 2022). Add in JUCO target Deion Smith, who is a six-foot-three deep threat. Ole Miss's wide receiver unit is explosive.
