The road doesn’t get any easier in the Big Ten for Ohio State. It comes home after being on the road but must face an Indiana team that is better than what its record indicates. The Hoosiers have been up and down, but have two wins against one of the most talented squads in the country, Iowa.
Indiana needs a statement win to bolster its NCAA Tournament resume, but the Buckeyes sorely need to keep winning to keep pace with Michigan and Illinois. A loss in Columbus would severely dampen the opportunity for a Big Ten championship. Who would have thought we’d be talking about that at this point in the season for an ever-improving and dangerous Ohio State club?
The game tips off at high Noon, so get your affairs in order early and sit down and take this one in. But first, we get you ready by diving into what you need to know before all the fun begins.
Next … The Ohio State game plan
The Oklahoma Sooners men’s basketball program has been on a bit of a hot streak winning four of the last five games. In that stretch, Lon Kruger’s squad defeated three-straight top 10 teams. It started with the Kansas Jayhawks who were in the top 10 at the time. The stumble began and eventually they were knocked out of the top 25 altogether.
The Sooners then followed up that win with a win over their rivals the Texas Longhorns on Jan. 26. They were a top 10 team ranked at No. 5, then game the Alabama Crimson Tide in the Big 12-SEC Challenge. The Sooners took down one of the hottest teams in the country without two of their starters in Austin Reaves and Alondes Williams. That sent the Sooners to the No. 9 spot in the AP Poll before a loss to Texas Tech.
With only six games remaining on the schedule, could be seven if the Baylor game gets added, BetMGM has their updated odds for the National Championship.
The Sooners have the 23rd best odds, not exactly great but better than where they were earlier in the year. They weren’t even listed among the top 30 teams in the country. Their odds to win the conference are fourth-best while they are the fifth-best in the National Championship odds among Big 12 teams.
