Indiana will be the No. 10 seed in the Big Ten Tournament and will play on Wednesday evening in Chicago.
THREE KEYS TO THE GAME
1. Abysmal defense. Ohio State torched Indiana’s defense. The Buckeyes started the game hot from the field and never really cooled down. For the game OSU shot 59.2% overall including 45.8% from three. But the first half was the real story, when OSU made 67.9% overall and 61.5% (8 of 13) from three. The live stats indicate the Buckeyes scored 1.56 points per possession in the first half.
2. OSU takes away the three. Take away the three, slow down IU’s offense. Indiana got up just eight attempts from long range in the first half and made just one. Yes, OSU made as many threes as IU attempted in the first half. Lamar Wilkerson and Tucker DeVries combined to go 0 of 5 from long range before the break. The Hoosiers came in averaging more than 51% of their field goal attempts from three, but took just 28.6% of their shots from beyond the arc in the first half. Things didn’t get much better after the break, and IU shot just 5 of 18 from deep for the game.
3. First half turnovers. Indiana added insult to injury in the first half with eight turnovers that resulted in 13 Ohio State points. Several of those opportunities resulted in live ball scenarios where the Buckeyes were able to score before IU’s defense was set. Seven different Indiana players had first half turnovers. Those miscues plus Ohio State’s hot shooting contributed to a 15-4 Buckeye close to the first half to give them their biggest first half margin (17) at the break.

- Zach Osterman, IndyStar: Ohio State 62-59
- “Both teams need this game. Neither is particularly consistent or impressive right now. They are living on the bubble, dangerously. Ohio State is at home, though, and Bruce Thornton might be the best player on the floor, pound for pound. Expect Indiana fans to turn out as they so often do in Columbus, but Ohio State wins a grind-it-out affair.”
- Michael Niziolek, Herald-Times: Ohio State 78-74
- “Indiana got back on track against Minnesota, but the matchup against Ohio State will be a much bigger challenge. The Buckeyes defend the perimeter well — opposing teams only shoot 31.3% from 3-point range against OSU — and they have a balanced lineup with four players averaging double-digits. One key matchup will be how well IU defends Bruce Thornton, who is 0-5 in his career against the Hoosiers. He has a chance to become his program’s all-time leading scorer on Saturday.”
- Lamar Wilkerson averages 21.1 points on 38.4% 3-point shooting, while Tucker DeVries averages 13.8 points and 5.3 rebounds. The ever-giving Wilkerson has a chance to pass Steve Alford for the most 3-pointers in a season for IU. Wilkerson has 101, while Alford had 107 in the first season that the NCAA used the shot (1986-87). The Hoosiers won their home finale to keep their March Madness hopes alive.
- Bruce Thornton averages 19.9 points, 5.2 rebounds, 3.8 assists and shoots 39.4% from 3-point range. He enters his final home game with 2,085 career points, 29 behind Dennis Hopson (1983-87). Backcourt mate John Mobley Jr. adds 15.8 points on 43.2% 3-point shooting. Inside, Devin Royal adds 14.0 points and 5.7 rebounds, and Christoph Tilly 11.1 points and 4.8 rebounds. The Buckeyes have won their last two, one of them over Purdue.
