Ok. Then my guess is two.
It seems to me that a million years ago, Ohio State played Colorado or Washington or someone in a Kickoff Classic game on a Friday. 1984 or 1985, maybe?
I'm going to stick to me guess of two.
In 1985, the Colorado game was in Boulder on a Saturday (in '86 tOSU played Colorado on a Saturday in C-bus).
Here are the 'different' days for fairly recent early season games:
1986 - Wednesday, Aug 27 - Pigskin Classic - tOSU 10, Alabama 16
1994 - Monday, August 31 - Pigskin Classic - tOSU 34, Fresno St. 10
1995 - Sunday, August 27 - Kickoff Classic - tOSU 38, Boston College 6
1997 - Thursday, Aug 28 - Eddie Robinson Classic - tOSU 24, Wyoming 10
1999 - Sunday, August 29 - Kickoff Classic - tOSU 12, Miami 23
Here are Friday Bowl games for tOSU:
01-01-1971 - 16-27 loss to Stanford (Rose)
12-29-1978 - 15-17 loss to Clemson (Gator)
12-26-1980 - 19-31 loss to Penn State (Fiesta)
12-17-1982 - 47-17 win over BYU (Holiday)
01-01-1993 - 14-21 loss to Georgia (Citrus)
01-01-1999 - 24-14 win over Texas A&M (Sugar)
01-03-2003 - 31-24 win over Miami (Fiesta NC game)
01-02-2004 - 35-28 win over K. St. (Fiesta)
Here are other Friday games for tOSU:
09-07-1894 - 00-06 loss to Wittenburg
11-15-1895 - 08-06 win over Kentucky (tOSU lost to Centre of Ky. the next day)
10-23-1896 - 00-16 loss to Oberlin
10-30-1896 - 30-10 win over Case Tech
10-02-1959 - 00-17 loss at USC
So it looks like tOSU has a record of 6-7 on Friday games.
