Michigan State men’s basketball defeated by Ohio State, 80-69

Following the loss to the Michigan Wolverines on Tuesday night, the Michigan State Spartans men’s basketball team traveled to Columbus on short rest to take on the No. 23-ranked Ohio State Buckeyes. Michigan State was defeated by Ohio State by a final score of 80-69.

Ohio State’s Zed Key and Kyle Young missed this game, but center Joey Brunk — starting in Key’s place — stepped up in a big way. Brunk, surprisingly, scored 18 points, while making seven of his 10 shots from the floor. He also had six rebounds. The Spartans had no answer for the Indiana transfer.
