A pair of kickoff times for Ohio State’s upcoming season were reported on Tuesday by The Action Network’s Brett McMurphy, which will include the Buckeyes kicking off on Oct. 7 against Maryland at 3:30 p.m. on Peacock, and a noon kickoff on Oct. 14 at Purdue, set to be broadcast on FOX.
If the Buckeyes do ultimately play Maryland on Peacock, it would be the first time that an Ohio State game would be broadcast exclusively on a streaming network. The schedule is subject to change, however, and these game times will not be officially announced until closer to those dates.
Other announced kickoff times include at Indiana on Sept. 2 (3:30 p.m., CBS), vs. Youngstown State on Sept. 9 (noon, Big Ten Network), vs. Western Kentucky on Sept. 16 (4 p.m., FOX), at Notre Dame on Sept. 23, 7:30 p.m., NBC) and Michigan State (Nov. 11, 7:30 p.m., NBC), and Ohio State is reportedly set for a 7:30 p.m. kickoff at Wisconsin on Oct. 28, though that time has not been confirmed.
