In keeping with Ohio State's tradition of scheduling one extremely difficult opponent per season, Ohio State has agreed to a two-game series with the United States Naval Academy.
Coach Jim Tressel hopes that the excitement and test provided by Navy's 230 pound linemen and 5'6" running backs will prepare the Buckeyes for yet another defeat in the BCS Championship game in 2009. After the eagerly anticipated Navy game, Ohio State's 2009 schedule is considerably smoother than the difficult 2007 schedule. For instance, rather than facing a low-tier away game against a PAC-10 team (Washington) like 2007, OSU plays a team called the University of Southern California at the cozy confines of Ohio Stadium in 2009. It goes without saying that the speed and athleticism displayed by Navy will readily prepare Navy for a comparatively easy game against the Trojans.
