The Big Ten released its schedule for the 2020 season on Tuesday.
The conference is expected to begin holding regular-season games on Sept. 3. Big Ten teams are currently slated to hold five home games and five away games. All teams in the conference stuck with nine opponents that were on their original 2020 schedules.
The season will open with Illinois hosting Ohio State on Thursday, Sept. 3. Indiana will head to Madison to face Wisconsin on Friday, Sept. 4. The rest of the teams will play the weekend of Sept. 5.
The final games of the season are scheduled for Nov. 21 to align with the end of the academic calendar.
The Big Ten Football Championship stays put on Dec. 5 at Lucas Oil Stadium but the new schedule allows for flexibility to possibly push it back to Dec. 19.

M vs OSU is week 7 in this schedule. Last weekend has OSU hosting Iowa, which clobbered the Buckeyes in their last meeting, knocking them out of the playoffs.
The NFL was thinking of going that route, but our side had a fit about that. Somehow it’s OK for college players to be in the locker room, but not the pros.
