The 2024 college football season is almost here, which means it is time to get ready to root for your Ohio State Buckeyes as they enter a new era of Big Ten football. The Oregon Ducks, UCLA Bruins, USC Trojans, and Washington Huskies join the fray this season. Ohio State will only see one newcomer this year in the regular season.
It will be a relatively quiet start to the season with matchups against Akron, Western Michigan, and Marshall before they open Big Ten play on the road against the Michigan State Spartans. The Buckeyes then face the Iowa Hawkeyes at home before heading to Eugene, Oregon, for a showdown with the Ducks. This could be a preview of the Big Ten title game. After the open week, the Nebraska Cornhuskers come to Ohio Stadium to close out the month of October.
Ohio State opens the November slate with a major road trip to Beaver Stadium to face the Penn State Nittany Lions. OSU then faces Purdue, Northwestern in Chicago, and Indiana before The Game.
Nov. 30 is the day that everyone has circled. Ohio State is looking to take out three years of frustrations on that team up north.
