Ohio State Buckeyes are reportedly considering becoming a college football independent, according to a Yahoo Sports story published Thursday.
The report comes after the Buckeyes' 45-16 victory over the Maryland Terrapins at Ohio Stadium on October 10, 2026. The game featured Ohio State mascot Brutus alongside players Landry Brede, Julian Sayin, and Blaine Bradford during the postgame singing of "Carmen Ohio."
No further details about the potential move to independence were provided in the initial report by Billy Heyen.
