Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
Fortunately for Key and Ohio State, Chris Holtmann said after the game that the injury didn't appear to be a long-term one. Two days later, the Buckeye coach said things continue to look promising. While he had "no real update" on 97.1 The Fan, Holtmann said "his knee has responded well to some of the treatment."
“Continues to be a day-to-day situation that we’re monitoring," Holtmann said in Monday's subsequent press conference. "… We’ll know more here in a little bit. We should know more by game time.”
Ohio State takes on Illinois at 8 p.m. in Champaign Tuesday, and it's still unclear whether or not Key will be healthy enough to play. Holtmann discussed the upcoming matchup, as well as Saturday's victory, in the interview above.

ANDREW’S FREE PICK
I’ll take a stab on Illinois. Probably not going near it, though; you could make a good case either way in this matchup and it should be a competitive game. Illinois didn’t look great at home versus Indiana in their last game, but they’d hit 75 or more points in every installment of that recent four-game win streak. As for Ohio State, they bounced back from their four-game losing streak with a nice win over a pretty decent Iowa team on Saturday. This one could go a lot of different ways, but cover-wise I’m sticking with Illinois. Should be a fun one.
