Ohio State and Florida will meet in Round 2 of the 2016 National Invitational Tournament tomorrow at noon. Despite being in different conferences, the Buckeyes and Gators have played each other 12 times since the 1981-82 season, and it’s been a surprisingly competitive series.
The Buckeyes hold an 8-4 edge in the all-time series and have won four of the last six. One of those two losses was a fairly important game that we won’t go into just now. That 8-4 mark includes a perfect 5-0 at home in the series. Series numbers mean little, of course, with different players, coaches, and situations involved over the years.
