I’ve always been a fan of ESPN Classic and the ability to watch old college football games outside of House. season. The Big Ten Network gave us some of that with a narrower look at Big Ten teams and, by extension, Ohio State.
Not only that, but I could turn on the news dedicated to the Big Ten, with OSU often in the spotlight because of where the football and basketball programs were at the time.
Since then, the network has, from time to time, shaped programming to focus on specific sports programs and dedicate an entire day to classic moments and programming from just that school.
We have a moment like that ahead of us again, according to a statement from the broadcaster on Friday. Starting Monday, June 3, specific days will be dedicated to each Big Ten school, and you may be interested to know that Saturday, June 9, will be “Ohio State Day.” It should also be noted that the new schools OregonUCLA, USCIt is washington you still won’t be part of all the fun.
Highlighted during “Ohio State Day” from what we’ve seen in past athletics programming will be the women’s ice hockey national championship game against Wisconsin and the spring football game in April. You can get a full list of programming by visiting btn.com/shows.
However, you may want to prepare DVR programming. It looks like the OSU-specific schedule starts at 6am ET and runs until 10:30pm ET. Most of the focus is on the past few seasons, but you can also relive “Holy Buckeye” in the B1G Moment and the Ohio State vs. Ohio State victory documentary. Michigan game (the location).
