Ohio State has arrived at their hotel in Madison. Day said Denzel Burke and Emeka Egbuka made the trip and indicated they’ll be ready to go. He said earlier in the week that TreVeyon Henderson was full go so Day wasn’t asked about him.

Burke has been out since the Purdue game after suffering an undisclosed injury in the 3rd quarter of Ohio State’s matchup with the Boilermakers. The junior cornerback has logged 8 tackles, an interception and a forced fumble this season. Having him back for the final stretch of the season will be huge for the Buckeyes.
Egbuka has missed the last 2 games for Ohio State, dealing with a leg injury. This season, he has recorded 303 yards and 3 touchdowns.
With the 2 key players back in the lineup, Ohio State should be able to handle business and keep its undefeated record unblemished. The game between the Buckeyes and the Badgers kicks off at 7:30 p.m. ET Saturday night.
