Ohio State Buckeye Schedule for 2019

The Ohio State University has announced the football kickoff times of 6 matches on its 2019 schedule. Included in the list was the contest at Michigan on November 30th, which will start at 12:00 PM ET, and will be on FOX.

Other game times that were released include: August 31st Florida Atlantic Noon on FOX, September 7th Cincinnati 12:00PM on ABC, September 14th Indiana away Noon on FOX, October 5th Michigan State 7:30 PM on ABC/ESPN and October 18th Northwestern 8:30 PM on FS1.

The Buckeyes cannot make any mistakes this year if they want to make it to the playoffs. Other major teams in the CFP have easy paths while OSU has to finish out strong. One loss on the season makes it difficult to get an invitation but Ohio State could possibly be an exception. Its always better to not have a blemish when teams are selected. They need to win the last three games of their year convincingly.

The non-conference schedule for the Buckeyes does not present a challenge this year. Luke Fickell and Cincinnati will be interesting but an easy win for Ohio State.

Penn State and Michigan await them at the end of their schedule. Win those match-ups plus the Big10 Championship (against Wisconsin, maybe Nebraska) and they will get their spot in the final four. Michigan and OSU are the favorites to win the Big Ten title in 2019.
