The Youngstown State athletic department will pocket $800,000 for playing at Ohio State in football in 2023.

21 Sports obtained the contract through a public records request.

Out of the so called "pay games" scheduled through 2027, the game against the Buckeyes is the biggest payday.

Other games over the years include:

2022   Kentucky      $550,000

2023   Ohio State    $800,000

2024   Pittsburgh     $450,000

2025   Michigan St.  $725,000

2026   Kentucky       $575,000

2027   Maryland       $600,000

According to Ohio State officials, the Buckeyes were scheduled to play San Jose State in 2023, but both schools mutually agreed to cancel the game without penalty to either school.

Prior to that game being cancelled, Ohio State was to pay San Jose State $1.8 million.
