Taming the Herd: Ohio State outlasts Marshall
Marshall came to the Schottenstein Center looking to compete, and it did just that. Marshall (1-2) lost to the Ohio State Buckeyes (2-1) in a contest that was tight during the second half.
The Thundering Herd took a one-point lead in the first minute of the contest but never saw another second ahead in a David vs Goliath matchup. The Herd went into halftime trailing 45-27. Despite a large lead, Marshall never wavered, coming out of the half and going on a 14-0 scoring run to make the Ohio State lead a meager five points. The Buckeyes eventually pulled away late, but the Herd stayed in it until the end, losing 84-74.
