COLUMBUS, Ohio -- Five out of the top nine - that's how many of Ohio State's receivers are missing.
Michael Thomas, Jalin Marshall, Braxton Miller and Curtis Samuel are healthy.
Noah Brown, Corey Smith, Dontre Wilson, Johnnie Dixon and Parris Campbell are not.
"It's been devastating," receivers coach Zach Smith said Monday. "But at the same time, we're in a position that we lost five of our top nine wideouts and at most schools, probably every school in the country, that would be disabling. For us, we have such depth and so much confidence in the guys that are healthy right now that we haven't missed a beat.
