All Regional Finals Covered by Spectrum and NFHS Network: All 28 regional championship games will be covered by either Spectrum or the NFHS Network. Please see the press box priority seating scale linked below for details on broadcast media access.

Neutral Sites: Neutral sites receive a rental stipend from the OHSAA and also keep revenue from concessions, parking and 50-50 raffles. The OHSAA selects and pays for the officiating crews. Many factors go into determining locations for each game, and rarely can an available site be found that is exactly halftime between the two participating schools. Once a potential site is determined, the school must be available and willing to host a game on the requested night.

Tickets: Tickets for all playoff games will be available on Mondays at www.ohsaa.org/tickets. Details on state championship game tickets are posted at: https://www.ohsaa.org/news-media/articles/ohsaa-announces-football-state-championships-schedule-and-tickets-11
