There were no unexpected entries on Ohio State’s injury report Friday, as the Buckeyes will enter the Fiesta Bowl matchup against Clemson at relative full strength.
No players are listed as game-time decisions, and none of the eight unavailable Buckeyes –– including freshman running back Marcus Crowley and redshirt senior wide receiver C.J. Saunders –– were surprises.
Sophomore quarterback Justin Fields has been dealing with a sprained MCL since the Buckeyes’ win over Penn State Nov. 23, and said Tuesday that he is 80-85 percent healthy. However, Fields will be available for Saturday’s game, where he said he will wear his smaller knee brace instead of the larger one he has worn in practice.
Ohio State and Clemson kick off at 8 p.m. Saturday at the University of Phoenix Stadium in Glendale, Arizona.
