Ryan Day: Ohio State Will Have 'Plenty of Players' for National Championship Game

Ohio State head coach Ryan Day told reporters on Thursday that his team will "have plenty of players" for Monday's national championship game against Alabama despite ongoing COVID-19 concerns in the program.

Day did not provide specific numbers or player updates. The update comes after reports surfaced earlier this week about the possibility of delaying the title game one week due to COVID issues on the OSU side.

The Buckeyes have faced coronavirus issues dating back to late November when they canceled their game against Illinois and even played multiple games without key starters, including during the College Football Playoff semifinal victory over Clemson.
