Ohio's conference schedule is now set for the 2019 season.
The Mid-American Conference announced its conference schedule for the 2019 season Wednesday, which means the Bobcats know their eight conference games.
Of note, the Bobcats will host Miami in the “Battle of the Bricks” on Wednesday, Nov. 6, on ESPN2. It will be the only football game played that night, the day of the 150th Anniversary of College Football Celebration.
Ohio also continues its cross-division games with a trip to Ball State and home games against Western Michigan and Northern Illinois.
Ohio will open its MAC schedule Oct. 5 at Buffalo. Homecoming is set for Oct. 12 versus Northern Illinois.
The Bobcats will have some time off between a road trip to Ball State and the mid-week matchup with the RedHawks. Ohio won’t have any five-day turnarounds for games, either.
The Bobcats’ 2019 schedule is below:
