West Virginia drops a double-overtime heartbreaker to Ohio State after leading by 16

West Virginia drops a double-overtime heartbreaker to Ohio State after leading by 16

West Virginia had control of Saturday night’s Cleveland Hoops Showdown for long stretches, but a game that should have been put away in the second half turned into a gut-punch finish as the Mountaineers fell 89–88 to Ohio State in double overtime in Rocket Arena.

WVU dictated the game early, controlling the pace and limiting Ohio State’s early offense. After a back-and-forth opening stretch, the Mountaineers began to separate late in the first half and took control heading into the break. Honor Huff capped the half with a three on the final possession, sending WVU to the locker room up 37–27.

That momentum carried into the second half. Brenen Lorient scored on WVU’s first possession, and the Mountaineers continued to build on the lead. West Virginia pushed the margin to 51–35 as Huff and Jackson Fields knocked down back-to-back threes for a 16-point advantage that reflected how firmly the game had tilted in the Mountaineers’ favor.

Ohio State didn’t fold, and the game gradually tightened. The Buckeyes began cutting into the lead, forcing WVU into longer possessions on both ends. Even as the margin shrank, the Mountaineers kept finding ways to respond. A technical foul on Ohio State and a brief WVU run helped slow the momentum, but the lead continued to slip as the second half moved toward the final minutes.

Ohio State erased the deficit entirely and briefly took the lead on a deep three late in the half, but Fields answered on the other end to tie the game at 68 and send it to overtime.

The first overtime followed the same pattern. Huff opened the period with a three, Ohio State answered, and neither team could gain separation. WVU had chances to end it, but Ohio State stayed close enough to force a second overtime.

The second overtime was just as tight. Chance Moore opened with free throws, Lorient knocked down a kick-out three to reclaim the lead, and Huff hit a jumper with 12.3 seconds left to put WVU back in front 88–87. Ohio State answered again, taking the lead with 3.6 seconds remaining. West Virginia never got a shot off on the final possession.

Huff led the Mountaineers with 24 points after a slow start. Lorient turned in one of his most complete performances of the season, scoring 18 points on perfect shooting and grabbing seven rebounds. Moore added 15 points,10 of which came from the foul line, while Jasper Floyd finished with 14 points and helped set the offense going early.

WVU will close the non-conference schedule on Dec. 22 inside Hope Coliseum against Mississippi Valley State. Tip-off is set for 7:00PM on ESPN+

How to watch Ohio State basketball vs West Virginia: Time, TV, stream

The Ohio State basketball team has had an up-and-down year so far. The record is respectable at 7-2 overall and 1-1 in the Big Ten, but by and large, it has beaten teams it was supposed to beat and lost in its two biggest contests.

The Buckeyes will try to get some forward momentum when they head to Cleveland to take on the West Virginia Mountaineers in the Cleveland Hoops Showdown Saturday night. Much like Ohio State, the Mountaineers have had mixed reviews and lost games against the better competition. They sit at 8-3 overall.

As we pause for the Ohio State football team to get back in action, what better way to put your scarlet and gray colored glasses on than by watching OSU hoops try to notch another win in what we all hope is a berth in the NCAA Tournament at the end of the season. If so, we’ve got all you need to know to find and watch the game on Saturday.

Ohio State vs. West Virginia, picks, odds

Odds courtesy of BetMGM as of Saturday, Dec. 13

Ohio State 72, West Virginia 67: This game will not be a free-flowing one and will look more like the game against Pitt than Illinois. That will benefit Ohio State with its ability to get into half-court sets and use its size and dribble penetration in the paint. It’ll be a lower-scoring, physical affair, but one in which the Buckeyes are able to outlast the Mountaineers.
Spread: Ohio State -3.5
Over/Under: 144
Money line: Ohio State (-170), West Virginia (+145)
