Haskell Garrett and Taron Vincent Available to Play, Justin Hilliard Listed As Game-Time Decision for Ohio State's Season Opener Against Nebraska

Less than two months after he was shot in the face, Haskell Garrett is available to play for Saturday's season opener against Nebraska.

The Ohio State defensive tackle is not among the 14 players listed on the Buckeyes' status report for Nebraska, indicating he could be on the field when they open their season against the Cornhuskers on Saturday at noon.

Fellow defensive tackle Taron Vincent, whose status was also in question for the season opener as he continued to recover from the torn labrum in his shoulder that sidelined him last season, is also not listed on the status report for Saturday's game, meaning the Buckeyes should have two of their key pieces at defensive tackle they thought they might not.
