When college athletics conversation in Ohio goes to Ohio State and Ohio University, it elicits memories of an angsty Bobcat on the football field and a dominant Buckeye. Another chapter entered the book Thursday night when the Buckeyes traveled to Athens to face the Bobcats. It was a vastly different result than Nov. 17, 2019, when the Bobcats shocked Buckeyes in Columbus. On this Nov. 17, Ohio State beat Ohio University 86-56.
The Ohio University Convocation Center was loud, with most of the lower bowl filled with a mostly green-clad crowd. Even so, a lot of scarlet too made it a fun game not only on the court but in the crowd.
