The Big Ten Conference just released the 2026 Ohio State Buckeyes football schedule, and it is going to be a very challenging season for head coach Ryan Day, QB Julian Sayin, WR Jeremiah Smith, and the rest of the Buckeyes. 

Tony Gerdeman of BuckeyeHuddle.com joins host Tom Orr to break down the schedule week-by-week, including:

• A trip to face Arch Manning and the Texas Longhorns in Austin
• A road trip to the Iowa Hawkeyes in the always challenging confines of Kinnick Stadium
• A road game against Curt Cignetti and the defending national champion Indiana Hoosiers
• A cross-country trip to face what is expected to be a College Football Playoff-contending USC Trojans team
• A home game the following week against one of the national championship favorites, Dan Lanning, Dante Moore and the Oregon Ducks
• The traditional regular season finale against archrival Michigan, QB Bryce Underwood, and new head coach Kyle Whittingham
