Urban Meyer continues to shorten his bench as the Buckeyes roll into the heart of their Big Ten schedule.

True freshmen Nick Bosa and Michael Jordan saw heavy action with Bosa in the defensive line rotation and Jordan starting at left guard for the Buckeyes, but many of their classmates struggled to see the field, both last week against Wisconsin and in Saturday's upset loss to Penn State.

Bosa finished the evening with two tackles, a sack and a TFL, while Jordan was part of an offensive line that faced a relentless assault from Penn State's front.

Defensive back Jordan Fuller and linebacker Malik Harrison saw action on special teams for the Buckeyes, but that was about it for the Class of 2016.
