Ugh. I’m a lot less hype heading into the Week 11 matchup between the Ohio State Buckeyes and Michigan State Spartans. No longer in the run for the College Football Playoff, the Bucks still control their destiny among the conference — and could still finish the year with a Big Ten Championship and New Years bowl game win.
After last week’s embarrassment of a game against Iowa, Urban Meyer and co. have released their latest depth chart for the Spartans. After only six carries last week, J.K. Dobbins is now listed ahead of Weber in the starting RB spot — despite keeping the “or” designation. The other noticeable changes come on special teams, with the coaching staff non-committal to Sean Nuernberger over Blake Haubell and adding Mike Weber to the kick-return team.
Here’s the depth chart heading into this Week’s matchup:
