Oregon football to host Ohio State, Michigan State, and play at Michigan in 2024

The Big Ten has announced Oregon's football team’s home and away conference matchups for 2024 through 2028.

Set to join the conference next August, the Ducks will host five conference opponents at Autzen Stadium in their inaugural season: Illinois, Maryland, Michigan State, Ohio State and Washington.

They will head out on the road for Michigan, Purdue, UCLA and Wisconsin.

After Ohio State’s trip to Eugene was axed during the height of the pandemic, the Buckeyes will make their first trip to Eugene since 1967.

The Ducks will also play nonconference games against Texas Tech, Idaho and Boise State, all at home, and Hawaii on the road, making a 13-game regular season schedule.

Oregon’s matchups with Maryland in 2024 and Rutgers in 2025 will be the first in program history against each school.
