The 2025 Big Ten football season is almost here.
With preseason camps around the corner for Ohio State and the Big Ten's other 17 member schools, the conference held its annual Big Ten Media Days this week — with one small change. Rather than travel to Indianapolis and Lucas Oil Stadium for the event, representatives from each program trekked to Las Vegas and Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino to meet with reporters from Tuesday to Thursday.
Ohio State head coach Ryan Day, wide receiver Jeremiah Smith, safety Caleb Downs and linebacker Sonny Styles will represent the Buckeyes in Vegas. Day will participate in a 15-minute press conference (*3:45-4 p.m.) Tuesday afternoon and a 45-minute breakout session (*5-5:45 p.m.) Tuesday evening, while Ohio State's three players will each have 30-minute breakout sessions (*6:15-6:45 p.m.) soon after their coach leaves his podium.
*NOTE: All times ET
Ohio State headlines Tuesday's session, which also features appearances from Big Ten commissioner Tony Petitti and representatives from Illinois, Indiana, Nebraska, Maryland and Rutgers. Wednesday's session includes Penn State, Oregon, Washington, Minnesota and Wisconsin, while Thursday's session includes Michigan, Michigan State, Iowa, USC, UCLA and Purdue.
