Ohio State Football: 3 observations on Ohio State schedule
By Alex Austin
The Ohio State Buckeye’s schedule is out, and there are a few things to make note of when looking over what 2020 will be like.
Even though there are still plenty of question marks about what the fall season might look like for football, Buckeye fans got a little bit of clarity on Wednesday.
The Big Ten finally released schedules for each team, and Ohio State gets a chance to look at their 10-game Big Ten only schedule for the first time.
After plenty of speculation about how much the schedules would change and what increased flexibility would look like, the Buckeyes end up keeping their original 9 conference opponents and adding Purdue.
There are two bye weeks instead of the usual one, and all teams in the Big Ten will have the weekend after Thanksgiving off, to allow for the possibility of moving games around. The Big Ten Championship game also has 3 different weekends that it could be played depending on what the situation looks like in December.
Plenty has been said about the Michigan game being played in October rather than as the last game of the season, but there are a few other things that stick out on Ohio State’s schedule.
