For the first time all year, Ohio State had to decide which 74 players it would bring on the road as the Buckeyes set their travel roster for their first road game of the season at Michigan State.
That travel roster does not include the 11 players who are unavailable for Saturday’s game due to injuries, including running back Miyan Williams and wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, with the exception of captains Kamryn Babb and Tyler Friday, who received waivers to make the trip even though they are not available to play against the Spartans.
The travel roster does include 18 true freshmen, including three walk-ons – quarterback Mason Maggs, running back TC Caffey and kicker Jayden Fielding – as well as quarterback Devin Brown, running back Dallan Hayden, wide receivers Kojo Antwi and Kaleb Brown, tight end Bennett Christian, offensive linemen Carson Hinzman and Tegra Tshabola, defensive ends Caden Curry and Kenyatta Jackson, defensive tackle Hero Kanu, linebacker C.J. Hicks, cornerbacks Jyaire Brown and Ryan Turner and safeties Kye Stokes and Sonny Styles.
