Head coach Ryan Day has not said what Teague is dealing with, but he said earlier in the week he thought he might be able to return Saturday night.
The Buckeyes will also be without fourth-string running back Marcus Crowley, who suffered a long-term injury earlier this month.
Teague was the starter most of last season but true freshman TreVeyon Henderson has taken a firm hold on the No. 1 running back role this season.
Redshirt freshman Miyan Williams backed him up last week with true freshman Evan Pryor third on the depth chart.
