When Sunday night’s primetime matchup between the Dallas Cowboys and New Orleans Saints kicks off, there will be plenty of former Ohio State stars on the field.

Between the two teams, seven former Buckeyes will be suited up for Sunday’s game — two for the Cowboys and five for the Saints. It should be a fun game to watch for Ohio State fans to watch. It may also serve as a pretty strong recruiting tool for Ryan Day and his staff.

Here is the list of former Ohio State stars who will be playing in the primetime game on Sunday night, as tweeted out by NBC Sport:

Both teams are off to a pretty good start, as well this season. The Cowboys enter the game with a perfect 3-0 record and New Orleans is at 2-1 on the year.

Kickoff is scheduled for 8:20 p.m. ET on NBC. Dallas is a 2.5-point favorite entering the game.
