Burke has appeared in four games so far. The Wisconsin game is the only game that he hasn’t played in yet. Through four games Burke has 3 solo and 4 assisted tackles.

If Ohio State fans were wondering what Knowles likes to see out of his corners, this is it. The Buckeyes just can’t get lucky enough to have all of their corners be healthy at one time it seems.

Fortunately for Ohio State, players like J.K Johnson and others have been able to step in for those who have gotten injured.
