Game Thread #1 tOSU at Washington, Sat. Sept. 27th, 3:30 ET, CBS

Following a Bye week, the Buckeyes head to Seattle to face the Huskies as a conference opponent for the first time.

The most recent meeting was the Rose Bowl following the 2018 season, a 28-23 Buckeye victory in Urban Meyer’s final game as head coach.

The last time tOSU went to Husky Stadium resulted in a 33-20 Buckeye victory in 2007.

Bruins come to Columbus for the first time as a conference opponent.

The overall series is 4-4-1. The Buckeyes are 2-1-1 in Columbus, winning the last such matchup 42-20 in 1999.

The most recent meeting was in Sept. 2001; in Jim Tressel’s second game as head coach the Buckeyes lost in Pasadena 13-6, with their only score coming on a blocked punt.

The only time these teams met in the postseason was the brutal 23-10 loss to the Dick Vermeil-coached, John Sciarra-QB‘ed team in the Rose Bowl after the 1975 season, during which the Buckeyes had defeated that Bruins team 41-20 in LA (correction) in early October. That loss was in Archie Griffin’s final game, and it cost the Buckeyes the National Title the last time Woody Hayes had a shot at winning another one.

Game Thread Grambling State at #1 tOSU, Sat. Sept. 6th, 3:30 ET on BTN

The Buckeyes host a first-time opponent, FCS Grambling State, who play in the SWAC. The Tigers were coached by the legendary Eddie Robinson, who led them to 408 victories from 1941 to 1997 (minus the WWII years of 1942/43).

Grambling has more NFL Hall of Famers than any of these schools:

Auburn, Clemson, Florida, Ole Miss, Tennessee, and Texas A&M.

Game Thread #1 Texas at #2/#3 tOSU, Sat. Aug. 30th, 12pm ET, FOX

The Longhorns visit the ‘Shoe for the first time since their Vince Young-led 2005 team won 25-22 on their way to the National Title. There is a chance this will be a matchup of the preseason #1 and #2 teams.

The Buckeyes evened the series by winning at DKR in 2006, with James Laurinaitis, Teddy Ginn, and Troy Smith leading the way.

Prior to the glorious CFP Cotton Bowl game last January, the only other matchup was a 21-24 Fiesta Bowl loss in Glendale after the 2008 season, when Terrelle Pryor was a freshman and Colt McCoy was a junior who had just won the Walter Camp POY Award.

The most recent Buckeye victory, sealed by Jack Sawyer‘s 83-yard play for the ages, once again tied the series at 2-2.
