At No. 6 in the current College Football Playoff rankings, the Ohio State Buckeyes need all the help they can possibly get to have a shot to play for the national championship in January, and they could have a huge reinforcement coming in in the form of defensive end Noah Spence.
Spence has been suspended the entire season thus far, however he now has an appeals hearing scheduled for this coming Tuesday.
Spence's appeal hearing is scheduled for Nov. 25 (Tuesday). Stay tuned.

This would mean that if everything goes well with the process, then Noah Spence would be eligible to return for the Michigan game, the Big Ten Championship Game and whatever postseason schedule the Buckeyes end up with. As for Spence himself, he fully expects everything to work out and be back in action soon.
Since this is spreading like fire. The words "last 3 games" came from Spence himself. He is either right, hopeful, or misinformed.

He apparently seems pretty confident about everything.
Spence was suspended for failing his second drug test in a nine-month span, however Urban Meyer noted that he would be sticking around the team. Now we can see why.
