That's a whole lot of Buckeyes -- 14 of 'em in fact. Indianapolis will be like Columbus West. Michigan State has a big group, too, at seven invitees. But that's still half as many as Ohio State.

The biggest name not included: Michigan quarterback Jake Rudock, who many though had improved his draft stock considerably with a strong senior season. He could still very much get a look by NFL teams, but he'll have to impress in individual workouts and during the Wolverines' pro day.
