I'd think if the virus was the culprit they would move the game back a week and try to get a few negative tests to get them back on the field.

Maybe a week isn't long enough?

Well the virus is the culprit, though my biggest concern is the guys they missed last week (Zach Harrison and Tyler Friday) would also miss this week, leaving them extremely thin on the DL.  But those guys appear to be back.

Maybe this contributes to an "Ohio against the world"
This is such a lame phrase and such an obvious and complete rip off of the original...

Trey Sermon, his mom, and background.  Wow.
That's some story.  I knew just the barest outline of it.
I wish our former RBs coach would have done better by Trey.  I wish our HFC would have figured out the problem sooner than he did.  I wish Trey wouldn't have hurt his knee.  He hadn't been passed over--just sharing reps with Kennedy Brooks, who had emerged as an equally effective runner with a different skillset.  But I don't think the sharing was equal.
I wish him all the best.

Sorry if it came across like that. It just seems as if there is a story about these guys it is similar. Bad. Very bad. Suppose if it was not then there wouldn't be a story.

Najee is a badass player.  Great pro career coming. I just get impressed by how some of these kids come from such horrible beginnings and make it big.

I'll have to amend what I said earlier - Harrison and Friday (And Miller) may be with the team but could possibly still be out on the protocol thing.  I hadn't thought of that.

Best info I have found.

The Ohio State football team has dealt with COVID cases leading up to the National Championship Game. These are all the players who will miss the game due to the virus.

Near as I can tell (and at this point I think we are all guessing) the main issues for the Buckeyes seem to be:

  • The kicking game, 
  • Depth on the DL, and
  • Depth at RB.  

Barring an in-game injury to one of the available DL or RB's, the kicker position seems like the biggest concern:  
  • Will Ohio State be able to reliably force touchbacks on KO's?  
  • Will Ryan Day be able to confidently send his FG unit out there if the Buckeyes have a 4th and long within normal FG range?
