Buckeyes selling tickets, opening first four training camp practices to fans
COLUMBUS — Ohio State fans will have a chance to see the Buckeyes football team a month before the season even opens.
Yes, it will cost fans $50, but the Buckeyes are selling tickets to the first four practices of training camp. Those dates are Aug. 1, 2, 3 and 4. The event is being referred to as Ohio State Football Kickoff Week.
According to a release from the athletic department, the week ‘includes admission for ticketed fans to Ohio State’s fall camp football practices at the Woody Hayes Athletic Center. Kickoff Week also includes the 2024 Ryan Day Season Kickoff Luncheon on Thursday, Aug. 1 from noon-1:30 p.m. at the Fawcett Center.’
More from the athletic department is here:
The admission price includes a pair of commemorative 2024 Ohio State training camp sunglasses (available upon check-in) and access to the family-friendly Fanfest. Tickets will be available on a first come, first serve basis starting at 10 a.m. Tuesday, June 11 at https://www.universe.com/osutrainingcamp2024. There will be 750 tickets available for each practice session with a limit of 10 tickets per order. Gates for each practice session will open at 8:30 a.m., with practice beginning at approximately 9:15 a.m.
Ohio State previously sold $30 tickets to two Buckeyes practices last year at training camp. This is the second year the program is holding open practices — for a price — to fans.

The Ryan Day Season Kickoff Luncheon on Thursday, Aug. 1, will include an appearance from Coach Day and an ‘in-depth Q&A session with Day and assistant coaches,’ according to the athletic department.
Ohio State, of course, has one of the best rosters in the sport this year. The Buckeyes have the second-best odds to win the national title thanks to nine starters returning on defense and a huge array of offensive skill weapons.
The Buckeyes open their season on Aug. 31 at 3:30 p.m. against Akron. That game will be broadcast on CBS.
