The No. 16 Ohio State Buckeyes (11-4, 5-2) woke up Sunday morning with a perfect 7-0 record at home this season, and were looking to keep that home cooking going with another victory over a surging Penn State (8-7, 3-4) in the Schottenstein Center. The Nittany Lions have won three of their last four games, with that loss coming on the road against then-No. 3 Purdue by just seven points.
Sam Sessoms led Penn State with 17 points in their 66-49 win over Rutgers Tuesday night, with three other ‘Nits (Seth Lundy, John Harrar, Jalen Pickett) scoring in double digits.
