It’s never too early to look ahead, and the Big Ten took a big step towards the year to come after revealing its complete football schedule for the 2025 season.
That will mark the second year we see new members USC, Oregon, UCLA, and Washington joined the Big Ten earlier this summer.
Defending Big Ten champion Oregon opens up on the road against Northwestern and plays at Penn State two weeks after that, but won’t play Ohio State or Michigan after playing both in 2024.
