Ohio State will not host a home night game this season.
The Big Ten announced on Monday that Ohio State's Nov. 3 game against Nebraska at Ohio Stadium will kick off at noon and will be televised on FOX.
Ohio State only has two home games remaining this season, and the final home game of the year against Michigan has also been scheduled for a noon kickoff, which means the Buckeyes will not host a night game this season for the first time since 2007.
