Indiana and Ohio State face contrasting injury reports ahead of Week 7

Ahead of the Week 7 matchup between Indiana and Ohio State, Indiana running back Khobie Martin is nearing a return from a right forearm injury. Coach Curt Cignetti noted that Martin, who has been out since the season opener, is “getting close to returning” and is currently listed as doubtful on the availability report.

Indiana's injury report remains relatively light, with tight end Andrew Barker also listed as questionable. Other key players, including receiver Lebron Bond and cornerback Carson Williams, are expected to be healthy.

In contrast, Ohio State faces significant availability concerns. The Buckeyes have seven players on their report, including starting offensive tackle Austin Siereveld, who is listed as out. Rotational running backs Ja’Kobi Jackson and Isaiah West are also dealing with injuries, with Jackson listed as out and West as questionable. The matchup features No. 5 Indiana against No. 4/5 Ohio State in Bloomington this Saturday.
