The game ‘at’ Toledo will be played at Cleveland Browns Stadium. The opener against Navy will be on ESPN, and the USC game will be a primetime ABC game. Which games will give the young Buckeyes a challenge?

They play AT Toledo??? Wow . . .
Well, it’s in Browns Stadium. So nobody is really home, except I’m guessing it’ll be 70:30 Scarlet : Navy at least.
Hardest games?
1) @ Penn State. Not a night game, but could be a 3:30 kickoff which means whiteout conditions at the finish.
2) USC. Home game helps, but how much of a tune-up will Navy be?
3) Iowa. Again, home field helps, but we haven’t played Iowa in a while, and they’ve been on the brink of being good for a while. Ricky Stenzl is a solid QB.
YEAH! LETS GO ROCKETS!!!
Is this normal? Maybe i don’t pay enough attention but it seems that OSU has had a bye week every season.
Dangit. My wedding/wedding reception is Sept. 12 in the evening. Very very poor planning.
Time for a big screen at the reception
It’s the exception, but it has happened a couple times, most recently in ’05 I believe.
@Rick – there was a bye week in 05. It was the week before the Penn State game, which the Bucks lost. I never liked bye weeks, as the Bucks always seem to lose those games, especially on the road. That was a loooong night.
No bye week in ’07 I think…
They have a few bye weeks: Navy, Indiana, New Mexico St…..
Thank you Nicko…I was going to make that kind of joke in the post, but I figured somebody would make it in the comments pretty quick. I’m surprised it took this long.
No problem. I had Michigan on there too, but thought better of it.
Is this the year we finally win a big game?
