It was bound to happen. After being just one day away from being ranked No. 1 in the polls, the Ohio State basketball team has now lost four games in a row and continued its slide down the polls. First, it was outside the top five, then outside the top ten, and now, in the latest AP College Basketball Top 25 Poll that was released, the Buckeyes have slid out of the top twenty, all the way down to No. 21.
I guess you could say at least the team is still ranked, especially after what we’ve seen so far in the calendar year of 2020. OSU is now winless since all the confetti fell on New Year’s night. It is 0-4 and searching for ways to take care of the basketball and find its shooting groove again.
So what’s the rest of the top twenty-five look like? It’s a revolving door of sorts, but here’s where everything stands courtesy of the official twitter feed of March Madness.
Gonzaga, Baylor, Duke, Auburn, and Butler make up your top five. The highest ranked Big Ten team is Michigan State all the way down at No. 15.
Ohio State next plays Nebraska at home Tuesday night. To say a win is much needed is the understatement of the new decade.
