In a battle of teams going in opposite directions, Ohio State will host Michigan State in a conference matchup Sundat at Value City Arena. The Buckeyes have won back-to-back games, while Sparty has lost two in a row.
The Spartans are licking their wounds after a thorough beating at the hands of Rutgers on Thursday evening. The Scarlet Knights came away with a 30 point victory and held Michigan State to a season-low of 37 points. You’d have to go all the way back to 2008 to see a Tom Izzo team score less than 40 points in a game.
To be fair, Michigan State was coming off a two-week hiatus due to COVID concerns and may have been a little rusty. However, the Spartans are not living up to their pre-season hype with a top 15 ranking and now sit at 2-5 in Big Ten play.
Even though the Buckeyes are a sizable favorite, Ohio State will need to play better than the Wednesday showing against Penn State to come out with a win over Sparty.
