For the second time in as many weeks, an injury caused a change to Ohio State's depth chart.
After Justin Hilliard and K.J. Hill went down ahead of the team's win against Rutgers last weekend, a broken foot sustained in practice sidelined redshirt sophomore guard Demetrius Knox for eight weeks. As a result, his name is not on the team's latest depth chart, released Tuesday afternoon.
The No. 2 Buckeyes (4-0) host Indiana (3-1) at 3:30 p.m. Saturday.
Notes:
- Redshirt sophomore Kyle Trout and redshirt junior Evan Lisle replace Knox at backup right guard on this week's depth chart. That is the lone change from last week's two-deep. Trout played late in Ohio State's 58-0 win against Rutgers.
- Joe Burger remains in place of Hilliard at backup WILL linebacker. Ohio State still lists Jerome Baker and Dante Booker as a co-starters at that position. Booker missed Ohio State's wins against Tulsa, Oklahoma and Rutgers with a sprained MCL but Meyer said on Monday he is "probable" for Saturday's game.
- Baker remains Chris Worley's backup at SAM linebacker.
- Sam Hubbard and Jalyn Holmes remain co-starters at defensive end opposite of Tyquan Lewis.
- Marshon Lattimore remains a co-starter at one cornerback spot with Denzel Ward despite being tied for the team lead with three interceptions.
-
Ohio State still lists nine starting positions with an "OR."
