Year three of the Kirk Herbstreit Ohio versus USA Challenge should be the best ever with 11 games in two days in two cities, featuring the best Ohio has to offer against national powerhouses.
“Every year the teams get better, the matchups more attractive and the national rivalries more intense,” said
ESPN College Football Analyst Kirk Herbstreit. “There are numerous Division I players in this year’s event who are being recruited by and have verbally committed to such top schools as Ohio State, Michigan, UCLA, USC, Florida, and Notre Dame. It’s
these players, their teammates, the coaches, fans, competition, sense of community and pageantry that make high
school football a passion for me and make me proud to have my name on this event.”
