On Thursday, The Ohio State Buckeyes and the Michigan State Spartans announced that their meeting this year will take place under the lights at Spartan Stadium. ABC will televise the game nationally, with a start time of 8pm Eastern.
The Spartans defeated the Buckeyes 34-24 in the Big Ten Championship Game on Dec. 7 last season, and would go on to beat Stanford in the Rose Bowl.
