The Ohio State football team has suffered numerous injuries in 2016, more so than previous years. Before last week’s 58-0 victory over Rutgers, the No. 2 Buckeyes lost redshirt sophomore backup right guard Demetrius Knox for eight weeks with a broken foot.
OSU coach Urban Meyer threw in several young Buckeyes on the field in the second half against the Scarlet Knights. Entering its second Big Ten contest against Indiana on Saturday in Ohio Stadium at 3:30 p.m., Meyer and the team have another opportunity to show its depth.
OSU released its Week 6 depth chart on Tuesday afternoon.
