Ohio State to play Toledo in 2022

COLUMBUS — Ohio State and the University of Toledo agreed to a one-game football contract that will send the Rockets to Columbus in 2022.

The two schools announced the agreement on Thursday.

It will be only the fourth-ever meeting between the two programs, who played for the first time in 1998.

The contract calls for Toledo play at Ohio State on Sept. 22, 2022. The Buckeyes are scheduled to open that season with a Friday night game at Notre Dame.

Toledo and Ohio State most recently played psuedo-home-and-home series in 2009 and 2011. The Rockets’ home part of the series actually took place at Cleveland Browns Stadium, where Toledo native Dane Sanzenbacher caught a pair of touchdowns and the Buckeyes rolled to a 38-0 victory in 2009.
