Star running back Darius Taylor, who has missed multiple games due to a lingering hamstring injury, looks poised to return to action. It was just the latest setback in a series of hamstring issues that have hampered Taylor since his freshman year. Taylor’s injury history has forced Minnesota to lean on less experienced runners. According to CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz, Minnesota star running back Darius Taylor is expected to be available vs. Ohio State tonight. Facing the Buckeyes, the Gophers will need every ounce of Taylor’s explosiveness to keep pace with Ohio State’s high-powered offense.
