Charlotte, N.C. --The Charlotte 49ers have announced that they have scheduled a football game at Ohio State for Sept. 8, 2029 in Columbus, Ohio.

“We love to play in college football’s greatest cathedrals, and traveling to Columbus to take on the Buckeyes at The Shoe will be an amazing game for our team and fans,” said 49ers Director of Athletics Mike Hill. “Ohio State is a legendary program and the Niners look forward to the challenge.”

This will be the 49ers’ first game against the Buckeyes. Charlotte is 0-1 all-time vs. Big 10 schools. The 49ers, under first-year head coach Biff Poggi, will play at Maryland this season.
