It’ Senior Day
For 18 Buckeyes, this will be the final game Ohio State’s seniors will play at Ohio Stadium…and don’t think that won’t play a factor in Saturday’s game.
Emotions will be running high, as players, such as Braxton Miller, are already thinking about their grand finale at The ‘Shoe.
Last game in the shoe Saturday. A lot of memories. Very blessed to be able to play the sport again. #watchgodwork pic.twitter.com/ZA1zUolLxT

Some of the notable seniors include:
- K Jack Willoughby
- CB Armani Reeves
- TE Nick Vannett
- OT Chase Farris
- DT Joel Hale
- DT Adolphus Washington
- OC Jacoby Boren
- OT Taylor Decker
- LB Joshua Perry
- H-Back Braxton Miller
And that’s not taking into account juniors such as Cardale Jones and Ezekiel Elliott, as well as stud wideout Michael Thomas. Defense end Joey Bosa is projected to be a top 3 NFL Draft pick, and all indications are that he’ll be leaving Columbus (unless he decides to stick around more season to play with his brother).

The Buckeyes don’t want to lose this game. Not with so much on the line. Not with the entire country watching. There’s simply too much at stake.
