Ohio State vs Nebraska live score updates, highlights, how to watch game

Ohio State’s men’s basketball players were on the bus to the airport after having won at Rutgers when they switched on the Nebraska-Michigan State game. The drive from Piscataway to Trenton allowed the Buckeyes to see the Cornhuskers prevail in the final seconds and improve to 14-0 with a 58-56 win against the Spartans.

Now, Nebraska brings the nation’s longest winning streak to the Jerome Schottenstein Center, presenting a challenge Ohio State coach Jake Diebler said is one his team is excited for.

“When they saw they won, (our players were) was excited about how big of an opportunity this is for us,” Diebler said Jan. 4. “It’s an early-season Big Ten game, but it’s one at home and it’s one against a team that’s established themselves. You have a top-10 team coming into your building, it’s a huge opportunity and our guys know that. We’ll be ready for it.”

Ohio State is 10-3 overall and 2-1 in the Big Ten after the Jan. 2 win against Rutgers.

The Buckeyes will be wearing some new Nike shoes for the Nebraska game, as the team showed in a video posted to social media.

Neither team has any surprises on its official availability report. Ohio State is still without Josh Ojianwuna (knee surgery) and Myles Herro (redshirt), while Nebraska’s Henry Burt is out. None of the three have played in a game this season.

Two Ohio men arrested on drug charges in Raleigh County after traffic stop

BECKLEY, W.Va. (WCHS) — Two Ohio men were arrested in Raleigh County after police said they found a large amount of drugs during a traffic stop.

Andy Gray Jr., 44, and Cornell Stevenson, 54, both of Cleveland, Ohio, were arrested on drug charges following a traffic stop just after 1:30 a.m. Friday in the 1900 block of Harper Road for allegedly speeding, according to a news release from the Beckley Police Department.

Based on observations during the traffic stop, officers deployed a K-9 around the exterior of the vehicle which alerted to the presence of narcotics.

During a search of Gray, Stevenson and the vehicle, officers said they found 445 grams of fentanyl, a small amount of cocaine and $3,500 in cash. Police said the fentanyl has a street value of about $90,000.

Gray, the driver of the vehicle, was charged with obstructing an officer, conspiracy to commit a felony, fleeing on foot and possession with intent to deliver, according to jail records.

Stevenson was charged with possession with intent to deliver, conspiracy to commit a felony and possession of a controlled substance.

Both men are each being held on $75,000 bonds.
