Running backs TreVeyon Henderson and Miyan Williams, wide receiver Jaxon Smith-Njigba, center Luke Wypler and linebacker Tommy Eichenberg met with the media on Wednesday night to discuss Ohio State’s season opener against Notre Dame.

The players discussed a wide variety of topics, including Henderson’s thoughts on the new turf at Ohio State, Williams’ role in the offense, Smith-Njigba’s expectations following a record-breaking season, how Wypler’s preseason differed from last year and the rooting interest of Eichenberg’s brother, former Fighting Irish offensive lineman Liam Eichenberg.

This marked the final media availability prior to the game, which kicks off at 7:30 p.m. on ABC, though head coach Ryan Day will briefly answer some questions during a lightning round on Thursday afternoon.
