Ohio State football | Jack Looks Back: Back-to-back openers on the road a rarity for Buckeyes

Jack Park, a leading Ohio State football historian, checks in each week during the college football season with a retrospective about the Buckeyes.

Ohio State will open its much-anticipated 2015 football season on Monday night at Virginia Tech. The Buckeyes started the 2014 season with a 34-17 victory over Navy in Baltimore. This will be the first time that Ohio State has opened two consecutive seasons away from Ohio Stadium since winning 34-17 at West Virginia in the 1998 season opener and losing the following year to Miami 23-12 in the now-defunct Kickoff Classic in East Rutherford, N.
