For good reason, Sunday afternoon’s Ohio State-Michigan matchup has gotten billed as arguably the best game in college basketball until March Madness arrives.
It’s a battle of top-four teams, both of whom are currently projected as No. 1 seeds in the NCAA tournament with just a few weeks left before the postseason begins. It’s the only time these rival schools match up in the regular season. It’s a clash of top-three teams in the deepest conference in college basketball. It’s an opportunity for each to cement itself as a national championship contender while securing its best win of the season up to this point.
