Ohio State football does not know if several key players will be available Saturday against Penn State.
last played a truly talent-equated game, Notre Dame effectively limited Marvin Harrison Jr. before an ankle injury slowed him even more.from the quarterback that night, turning seven receptions into 96 yards. None bigger, obviously, than the 23-yard catch in traffic at the goal line that set up Chip Trayanum’s game-winning touchdown plunge
Day did not offer a specific update on Egbuka’s status. Running backs TreVeyon Henderson, Chip Trayanum and Miyan Williams were seen coming off the practice field in pads and carrying their helmets. Starting cornerback Denzel Burke, however, was not among the visible players. So what happens if Egbuka is not available to thrive in the space created by extra attention on Harrison?
Purdue, though, does not have a Kalen King. Widely considered a possible first-round NFL Draft pick, the cornerback will presumably draw a lot of matchups with Harrison. The question remains whether Penn State will give him help — an easier proposition if Egbuka can’t play or is far from his usual standard.
