Ohio State to play home-and-home series with Texas in 2022-23

The Ohio State Buckeyes locked up a pair of marquee non-conference football games on Wednesday, as the school agreed to another home-and-home series with the Texas Longhorns according to the team's official site.

Set to square off during the 2022 and 2023 seasons, the series will officially resume at Texas Stadium on Sept. 17, 2022. The Buckeyes will then host the game the following year on Sept. 16, 2023 in Columbus.

The two schools originally scheduled a home-and-home set during the 2005 and 2006 seasons, and split the two-game series before eventually meeting up in a wildly entertaining 2009 Fiesta Bowl. Mack Brown's Longhorns own a 2-1 advantage over Ohio State in the all-time series due to their latest bowl game victory, but the Buckeyes will finally have a chance to tie and eventually overtake the series when the 2022 and 2023 seasons roll around.

The Longhorns are now the second team from the state of Texas to land on one of Ohio State's future schedules. Last week the school announced a separate home-and-home series with TCU that will be played during the 2018 and 2019 seasons, which will mark the first time Ohio State has faced the Horned Frogs since 1973.
