Ohio State adds Buckeye Stripe designs to Ohio Stadium end zones
Summary

The Ohio State athletic department has completed several upgrades to Ohio Stadium ahead of the 2026 college football season. Workers recently applied the "Buckeye Stripe" design to the end zones, matching the aesthetic of the team's new uniforms. These stadium improvements follow the installation of a new playing surface during the summer, which head coach Ryan Day described as approved by the team's top players. The renovations include both stylistic changes to the field and upgraded turf technology intended to enhance the player and fan experience. Ohio State opens its 2026 campaign this Saturday when it hosts Ball State at 12:30 ET. The latest design additions to the field serve as the final aesthetic touch for the home venue before the start of the season.
