Completely forgot the OSU is wearing the throwbacks this weekend.

You can buy it now. Really interested to see what they look like on the field.

They look like a soccer uniform.

These were my favorites

I agree. I'll never forget going to the OSU game against them in Urbans first year, best game and seats I've ever had. I scored two tickets on the 25 towards the student section for $90 a piece 10 rows up. I believe we won 62-35, just an insane game to attend with that much scoring. Was going to be at this one but sadly the girlfriend has a close relative getting married. Frickin people and their football season weddings

The Big Ten will have Friday night games next year and it's sounds like Ohio State has agreed to host one of them at least every three years.

This is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. They're playing 1 every 3 years...just not in 2017.
"Yea, let's compete against Friday night high school in the mid-west....this will work out real well."

Now, clearly OSU will stilll get the draw...but there's going to be some upset schools/parents when their kid is playing on the same night as an OSU game. It just doesn't make any sense. The B1G isn't the MAC, leave it on Saturday.

Agreed.
I remember in the past a local school had moved some game times because of OSU football to not go directly against it. I doubt it will be a big matchup game, I wouldnt think.

Not a fan of Friday night games. Those are for trash conferences/teams.

I agree. Fuck that shit; it's for smaller conferences and schools just happy to be on national TV, not a team like Ohio State.

Every 3 years. Game at Rutgers. Who gives a fuck. Saves many from watching that train wreck!

Penn St. Has notified the Big Ten that they won't participate in Friday night games at home.

Pretty much every school in the Big Ten has given conditions.

It's a bad idea.

Someone brought up another good point...for me it takes an hour to get to campus, so it's no big deal to leave after work on a Friday night. But, for those alumni who come from further away/out of state...they aren't happy.

I think Friday night games is a horrible idea. I would think it would not be good for recruiting since most of the recruits would be playing. Just a bad idea all around. Cant believe they are even considering this.

Maybe they are just throwing it out there to gauge fans reaction, and will nix it after they see it ain't good? for OSU, at least

Eh...as for recruiting......OSU to play 1 time every 3 years? That isnt going to hurt it at all.

Today seems to be the last tough one on the schedule before Michigan. Not overly concerned with Maryland and MSU on the road. Let's get it!

Hoping the Buckeyes come to play today. Would be nice to see the receivers do something other than block down field.

First quarter is half way over before the offense ever even touches the ball. Don't like that.
