Ohio State left its 28-3 victory at Illinois in Champaign relatively healthy.

As a result, not many changes were made to its depth chart, released Tuesday, ahead of the No. 3 Buckeyes' game against No. 9 Michigan State Saturday.

Notes:

  • The lone difference from a week ago is a switch at placekicker. Sean Nuernberger is officially listed ahead of Jack Willoughby, despite missing a 24-yard chip shot field goal at Illinois Saturday. He did make all four of his extra point attempts.
  • Willoughby will remain the team's kickoff specialist, as Urban Meyer said.
  • An 'OR' was added between wide receivers Parris Campbell and Jeff Greene, who back up leading receiver Michael Thomas.
  • Even though the offensive line struggled to protect quarterback J.T. Barrett against the Fighting Illini, the two-deep at the unit remains the same as it has all season.
