Ohio State, Navy to resume football series in '09
Wednesday, April 23, 2008 9:23 AM
Ohio State and the U.S. Naval Academy today announced a two-game series in football that will begin in 2009.
The Buckeyes will host the Midshipmen in the 2009 opener on Sept. 5 in Ohio Stadium. The return game will be August 30, 2014, at a site in the Annapolis, Md., region.
?What a thrill it will be for the Ohio State community to host the proud tradition of the United State Naval Academy,? Ohio State coach Jim Tressel said. ?It will be a special memory for our coaches and players to compete against the nation?s finest.?
Ohio State and Navy have met three times in football. OSU won 27-0 at Navy in 1930 and 20-0 in Columbus in 1931. The teams most recently met in 1981, a 31-28 Ohio State victory in the Liberty Bowl.
