The Big Ten has released the football schedules for the 2015 and 2016 seasons. The Indiana Hoosiers start both seasons against Wisconsin, while the Purdue Boilermakers have a tough go against Ohio State to start conference play.

May 21, 2012 - The Big Ten conference has released their football schedules for both the 2015 and 2016 seasons, approved by the conference's administrators during the Big Ten Joint Group Meetings last week. Both seasons will kick off in early October and feature intriguing match ups right off the bat in the "Legends Division" and "Leaders Division" match-ups that feature some tough rivalry matches.

The 2015 season will start on October 3 while the 2016 season will start October 1. Both Indiana and Purdue begin with tough games, with Indiana playing the Wisconsin Badgers and Purdue facing Urban Meyer's Ohio State Buckeyes to start both years in conference play.

As with previous seasons, the Big Ten Championship game in 2015 will be decided at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis, Indiana. For 2016, the site is still to be determined though it would be a safe bet to assume that Lucas Oil will host it once again.

A full .pdf of the two newly announced seasons, along with all of the other seasons that had already been decided from 2013 on, can be found here.
