Ohio State's getting set to take on Western Michigan in its final non-conference regular season game Saturday, with the Broncos providing a final tune-up before the Buckeyes head to Indiana to kick of their conference slate.

Western Michigan is the second MAC opponent in as many weeks to head to Columbus, with defending champion Northern Illinois falling, 20-13, at Ohio Stadium last Saturday.

Ohio State released its depth chart for the contest Tuesday, but the lone noticeable changes was the absences of starting nickel corner Damon Webb and wide receiver Parris Campbell. The Buckeyes announced just before the game against the Huskies Webb was suspended for a violation of athletic department policy, and Campbell left the game with a reported bruised knee.

Notes:

  • Urban Meyer said Monday he didn't know who he planned to start at quarterback against the Broncos. Tuesday on the Big Ten teleconference, he said he had an idea who would start, but hinted he wouldn't reveal it until Wednesday after practice. To no surprise, nothing more was revealed on who has the edge between J.T. Barrett and Cardale Jones. Both continue to be listed as co-starters on the depth chart.
  • Though senior and Duke transfer Jack Willoughby is the lone kicker who's seen any time so far in 2015, he is still listed as co-starter with sophomore Sean Nuernberger.
  • In the vacated spot created by Webb's suspension sits Marshon Lattimore, who Meyer said last week he expected to see time against the Huskies but played sparingly.
  • Meyer, or anyone within the program, has not provided an update on Campbell's status for Saturday, but his omission from the depth chart does not look good for his prognosis to play against the Broncos.
  • In Campbell's place sits Curtis Samuel, who last week was listed as Braxton Miller's backup at H-back. Dontre Wilson now occupies the spot behind Miller.
