Pretty solid there too yes? You’d be hard-pressed to find another program scheduling game like this on a consistent and annual basis. Most of these games are going to be prime-time, highly-ranked affairs unless there’s an unforeseen drop-off. Either way, the intent is clear.
Ohio State will schedule anyone, anywhere, at anytime — as long as there’s a reciprocal agreement that the team makes a return trip to Columbus. And that’s really all you can ask right?
Ohio State deserves credit, they have always been willing to schedule tough non conference games. And they are willing to go on the road not a neutral site. https://t.co/zVUykog0ru

So, the next time someone pops off about Ohio State’s scheduling, feel free to pull up this article and let them do a little self-educating. The Buckeyes don’t shy away from playing big games.
In fact, the entire program — from the athletic director to the coaching staff — embraces the challenge and environment it creates for the culture of what players can expect when they come to play on the banks of the Olentangy.
