The Big Ten announced future conference schedules from 2022 through 2025 with multiple Ohio State matchups against West Division opponents such as Wisconsin, Iowa and Northwestern.
In addition to their East Division contests each season, the Buckeyes play all seven teams in crossover games. OSU most notably faces Wisconsin four times in as many years, plus two home-and-home battles apiece with Iowa and Northwestern. Ohio State plays Illinois, Minnesota, Nebraska and Purdue in single games over the four-season span.
Over the next eight years, the Buckeyes take on a handful of programs among their crossover contests. Updated schedules, with nonconference slates included, can be found below.
