The No. 3 Ohio State Buckeyes will need to be at their healthiest ahead of Saturday’s marquee matchup with the No. 7 Penn State Nittany Lions in Columbus. Coach Ryan Day’s team is coming off a convincing 41-7 win over the Purdue Boilermakers, but did so without key contributors in receiver Emeka Egbuka and running backs TreVeyon Henderson and Miyan Williams.

With College Football Playoff implications on the line Saturday, Ohio State will need everyone healthy in order to keep control of the program’s championship destiny. Day kept things a bit under wraps, but provided a “hopeful” update on the status of the offensive trio when speaking to the media on Tuesday.
