College basketball isn't the same when it comes to scheduling as what we see with college football. The schedules don't take shape until the same season in which we get to see Ohio State do extreme athletic feats on the court, and that's what we are seeing this year as well. In fact, the schedule has yet to be officially set, but the Big Ten conference did unveil the home and away conference opponents to whet the appetite just a bit.We now know that Ohio State will keep the rivalry with Michigan alive with both home and away, and that it will also face Iowa and Penn State twice. In addition to that, Ohio State will play Illinois, Indiana, Minnesota, Nebraska, Purdue, UCLA, and USC once away from home, and welcome Maryland, Michigan State, Northwestern, Oregon, Rutgers, Washington, and Wisconsin to the Schott one time without a return trip.There's some give and take there, and it's hard to really know just how good some of the teams in the conference will be with all of the turnover, but regardless, it'll be a tough schedule because of how difficult the Big Ten Conference will likely be.B1G opponents make for big moments.
