Things to Watch

Injury Update
Linebacker Storm Klein hurt his back prior to the Illinois game and he is still questionable for the Michigan game. Jordan Hall re-injured his knee and will take a medical redshirt, extending his time at OSU by one additional season. On special teams, DeVan Bogard and Najee Murray are out for the season with ACL injuries. Three players missed some playing time against Wisconsin but returned to play and are expected to play this week, Ryan Shazier, C.J. Barnett, and Travis Howard.

Can Ohio State finish #1?
As you know, this is the last game for Ohio State. With a victory over Michigan it would only be the sixth time in team history with an undefeated season, with the others being
1916, 1944, 1954, 1968, and of course 2002.

New Uniforms
Ohio State will wear new uniforms during the Michigan game. The uniforms inspiration dates back to the late 1960's and were worn by the 1968 undefeated National Championship team. The jerseys are scarlet and the pants are gray. The larger numbers are written in gray and the stripping is wider than the current uniforms. There are seven buckeye leaves on the back collar with a block O on the front. The helmet is a dull gray which is supposed to stand out in sunlight.
