Chris Worley, Ohio State's starting middle linebacker, suffered a first half injury against Army and is doubtful to return.
He's spelled by redshirt freshman Tuf Borland, who has played extensively in the second half for the Buckeyes.

Tuf Borland continuing to get all the snaps at middle linebacker with Chris Worley out of the game. Haven't seen Dante Booker play today.

Borland – who checks in at 6-foot-1 and 230 pounds – was an early enrollee in the Class of 2016, arriving on campus in January and working out with the team before his classmates arrived over the summer. He hails from Bolingbrook, Illinois where he was a two-time all-state player at linebacker.
Update: In his post-game presser, Urban Meyer stated that Worley's injury is a sprained foot.
