Ohio State men blow past Central Michigan 88-61 led by Bruce Thornton’s 25-point night

Riding a four-game winning streak and suddenly the owner of a nice, tall trophy, the Ohio State Buckeyes (6-1) welcomed the Central Michigan Chippewas (2-5) to the Schott Wednesday night for another B1G-MAC showdown. Ohio State beat Western Michigan earlier this month to start their trio of MAC games in the non-conference and will face off with in-state foe Miami a week from Wednesday to close out the three-pack.

CMU entered this game as the No. 304 team in the nation according to KenPom — the worst team on Ohio State’s schedule, if you trust the scholarly mind of Ken Pomeroy.
