Ohio State Buckeyes Fans are Furious Over Scheduling Blunder

Last year, Ohio State Buckeyes fans were not exactly please with not having any intriguing home night games on their schedule. As a matter of fact, their only evening matchup was in Week 2 against Western Michigan. Not exactly a thriller.

Well, next season, it appears to be more of the same.

Ohio State will be playing an early night game at Ohio Stadium in September, but it will come against the Ohio Bobcats. Understandably, Buckeyes fans are peeved.

Stupid.

Kinda confusing how schools aren’t fighting harder to fix this. Seems like they have the power to or maybe I’m missing something?

We could of had a better night game in our non conference schedule, but at least we get to play one of the best MAC schools at night.

Ohio State will begin its season facing the Texas Longhorns at noon ET on Saturday, Aug. 30 before hosting Grambling at 3:30 p.m. ET the following week.

Based on what we saw from the Buckeyes' schedule last year, this should not come as much of a surprise. Remember: fans routinely complained about too many noon starts in 2024, which lasted pretty much the entire regular season.

It would certainly be nice for Ohio State to play a meaningful game under the lights, but that obviously is not in the cards for the Buckeyes in 2025.

Ohio State is coming off of a national championship, so expectations are high heading into next season. However, because the Buckeyes lost a ton of players to the NFL Draft, there isn't quite as much hype surrounding the team this time around.

That being said, Ohio State is still widely viewed as a College Football Playoff team and should have a great shot of defending its national title next year. It just unfortunately won't be in prime time most of the way. Well, except against Ohio.
