Ryan Day reveals injury issues for six Ohio State starters ahead of Indiana

Summary

Ohio State coach Ryan Day announced that six starters missed the team's 45-16 win over Maryland due to injuries and non-football-related issues. While Day expressed hope that most players could return for the crucial matchup against Indiana on October 17, he stopped short of guaranteeing full strength. Among the absentees were wide receivers Brandon Inniss and Devin McCuin, and offensive linemen Austin Siereveld and Phillip Daniels. The Buckeyes face Indiana in a highly anticipated game following last season's Big Ten Championship upset, now complicated by a potentially depleted roster.
