Ohio State basketball program announces 2020-2021 non-conference schedule

Ohio State basketball’s 2020-2021 non-conference schedule is now complete. The athletic department released the details Tuesday.

We’ve heard and read some events and games trickle out, but now we know the entire non-conference schedule for the 2020-2021 Ohio State basketball season. That’s because the athletic department announced the finalization of the slate Tuesday.

Some of the highlights of that docket include a trip to the Bahamas for the Battle4Atlantis, a game against North Carolina in the CBS Sports Classic, a couple of games against former Ohio State assistants, and the annual Big Ten/ACC Challenge (opponent and date still TBD).

To make a long story short (or even longer), it’ll be another challenging non-conference slate. Here’s the list of dates, times, and opponents that were announced in the release from Ohio State:
