Ohio State's non-conference schedule is already one of the toughest in the Big Ten, and its most recent announced opponent is no slouch either.
Bucknell confirmed reports that it will travel to Columbus to take on Ohio State in 2018, as the Bison will play the Buckeyes on Dec. 15 at the Schottenstein Center.

Last season, Bucknell won the Patriot League title and earned a spot in the NCAA Tournament, falling to Michigan State 82-78 in the first round. The Bison finished with an impressive 25-10 overall record.
Ohio State's non-conference schedule now includes home games against the Bison and Syracuse, road games against Creighton and Cincinnati, and a neutral site game against UCLA in the CBS Sports Classic.
