Ohio State wins again
CLEVELAND, Ohio (WOIO) – There are whispers among Ohio State reporters that the team does have a path to March Madness with a late surge of wins. Whether or not they really do remains to be seen, but the team is at least now fueling that fire.
The Buckeyes, behind 32 points from Jamison Battle, beat Nebraska 78-69 in Columbus on Thursday night.
The Cornhuskers entered play at 20-8 with a 10-7 record in conference play, but they could not put away the Buckeyes. Ohio State trailed 34-27 with 4:47 left in the first half, a first half that to that point Nebraska had mostly lead. The Buckeyes closed the half on a 12-3 run to get a two point heading into the break, and never trailed after that, outscoring Nebraska 39-32 in the second half.
Ohio State is now 3-1 since the firing of Chris Holtmann as their head coach.
