I take it you're flying to Cleveland, or otherwise won't be driving
into Cleveland.  Anyway, the Ohio Turnpike is always pretty good, but
not exactly on your way.  The key to Ohio winter driving is trying not
to drive when the snow is actually falling- not always easy or even
possible.

That said, try to avoid the eastern suburbs- it's not that road
maintenance is any worse there, it's just that there's an odd
phenomenon known as "lake effect snow" that hits the area from downtown
Cleveland up along Lake Erie to Buffalo, and southward to the Turnpike,
with more snow than the rest of the state each winter.

Best way to Oklahoma would probably be I-71.  All Ohio interstates are
well maintained, but 71 is more direct.  Take it all the way to
Louisville, then 65 to Nashville & onward on I-40.  This gets you out
of winter wonderland more quickly than trying to go through Indiana.
