COLUMBUS, Ohio —
Ohio State will pay more than $2 million in total guarantees to bring Virginia Tech, Kent State and Cincinnati to Ohio Stadium to play the Buckeyes in football this fall.
The university disclosed the payouts on Tuesday at the request of The Associated Press.
Cincinnati, located a couple of hours away, will receive the most money — $888,246 — to come play the Buckeyes on Sept. 27. Kent State, also located about 2 hours away, gets $850,000 to appear in Columbus on Sept. 13. Virginia Tech, which comes to Ohio Stadium on Sept. 20 as the first of a home-and-home series with the Buckeyes, will receive a $350,000 guarantee.
The Buckeyes get an $850,000 guarantee to open against Navy on Aug. 30 at Baltimore's M&T Bank Stadium.

Wow for a second I thought it said Ohio State will pay its players. Why would they need to pay Vtech and Cincy? I thought those two have relatively lucrative sports programs.
I wondered the same thing... they usually just pay teams to come in and get the shit kicked out of them

Yea seems weird to pay a team to come and possibly beat you at home.
probably gonna piss dirty off but osu paying teams to play them makes no sense to me

honestly i thought u would tell me if i was smarter i would understand why.
if anything shouldn't those teams be paying osu? Seems to me those small schools get a lot more out of the game then osu does
