How did two more Ohio State basketball wins change the ESPN’s matchup predictor for remainder of Buckeyes games?

Ohio State had another splendid week in the Big Ten. It went on the road and got a very underrated win against Maryland, then came back home and made the Indiana Hoosiers — who have some pretty good wins — look like an average team. The two victories mean the Buckeyes have now won six straight and nine of their last ten in the insanely deep and talented Big Ten.

With two more in the win column, we thought we’d check in again with what ESPN’s matchup predictor says for OSU’s remaining games. The last time we took a peek under the hood, some of the projections went the opposite way than what you would expect. Did those self-correct, or is there still a perceived glitch in the Matrix with this whole thing?

Let’s get to it. Ohio State is now the No. 4 ranked team in both major polls, and here’s what ESPN predicts will happen down the stretch with each remaining regular-season contest, complete with a running predictive record.
