The Ohio State Buckeyes have added the Navy Midshipmen and Youngstown State Penguins to their future football schedules, the school announced Wednesday.
Ohio State will host Navy at Ohio Stadium in Columbus, Ohio, on Sept. 1, 2029. The game will mark the sixth overall meeting between the two schools.
Ohio State and Navy first met on the gridiron in 1930 in Baltimore, Md. In their most recent matchup in 2014, Ohio State defeated Navy in Baltimore, 34-17, to extend its unbeaten record in the series to 5-0.
In order to schedule the game against Navy, Ohio State has rescheduled its home game against the Nevada Wolf Pack in 2029. The Buckeyes will now host the Wolf Pack the following season on Sept. 7, 2030.
Ohio State has also added a home contest against the Youngstown State Penguins of the Missouri Valley Football Conference (MVFC) in the Football Championship Subdivision (FCS). Ohio State will host Youngstown State in Columbus on Sept. 15, 2029.

FOOTBALL SCHEDULES
Future Ohio State Football Schedules
I wont be surprised if the Youngstown State and Ohio State game is backed out/bought out in a few years.
Georgia would make a perfect replacement to fill a void should they withdraw Youngstown State.
I don’t like OSU’s 2029 OOC schedule now.
But if the Big Ten were to drop to 8 conference games and the Big 12 to 7, Cincinnati would make an excellent P4 opponent.
As a matter of fact they should be playing every year.
Breaking News: NCAA have fined Z-Man $14 million dollars for harassing, bullying & dictating Big Ten, SEC & Big 12 for threating these conferences go to an uncalled-for like scheduling.
Unreasonable Reaction Man (Z-Man) You are the most dangerous person & you are destroying everything in College Football at a time they are working hard to improve the sport with nine game conference schedules & expanded playoff format & you do not give a crap about it because of your very selfish attitude & obscured proposals & you are not part of conversation on fbschedules.
This is very sad Unreasonable Reaction Man (Z-Man).
Take it easy with the reactionary comments. Z-Man is offering his suggestion/opinion. However, the power conferences and TV execs aren’t taking advice from the comment section on FBSchedules.com.
Good News Kevin I do not greed for money & I was getting Z-Man attention not to make penalty.
I do fully support Power Conference & Television Executives not being involved with FBSchedules.com & when I do my mock TV & kickoff times I do it for fun of it plus I respect both Power Conferences & Television Executives.
Z-Man The only Big Ten team I care about playing Big 12 opponent is Iowa-Iowa State.
I would like to see Notre Dame-USC play third Saturday in October every year so Big Ten can do ALL conference games including UCLA-USC every year on Thanksgiving weekend.
I would like Georgia-Georgia Tech to continue its battle whether it’s on Thanksgiving weekend or September or perhaps October.
I have a lot of enthusiasm with Big Ten & SEC playing one game with each team.
Z-Man I have zero interest in Ohio State-Cincinnati playing every year sorry buddy.
Navy almost always plays an FCS game to go with their eight AAC matchups, Army, Air Force, and ND. I assume that they would only swap out the FCS matchup for a special opponent.
