The Big Ten Conference Administrators Council, which includes the Directors of Athletics and Senior Women Administrators from all 14 member institutions, approved the revised 2021 Big Ten football schedule. The schedule was updated in order to accommodate the following six games that adjusted locations as a result of changes made during the 2020 scheduling process:

· Indiana-Michigan
· Indiana-Michigan State
· Michigan-Michigan State
· Nebraska-Purdue
· Nebraska-Wisconsin
· Purdue-Wisconsin

All other opponents and locations remained intact from the previously approved version of the schedule. The only additional changes involved the sequencing of games throughout the schedule, including the return of traditional rivalries in the final week of the season such as Iowa-Nebraska and Minnesota-Wisconsin.
