Ohio State listed nine players as unavailable for its Week 3 road opener against Indiana on its official status report Friday.
The list includes eight of the same players as last week, including team captains in redshirt junior wide receiver C.J. Saunders and senior defensive end Jonathon Cooper, who both missed the previous two games.

Cooper was back in pads at practice this week, but will miss his third straight game to begin his final season in the program.
Redshirt junior safety Jashen Wint will be unavailable for the Buckeyes for the first time this season, taking the place of redshirt senior linebacker Justin Hilliard, who is now available.
