Ohio State Overpowered by Michigan State 81-54 in Big Ten Quarterfinal

Ohio State’s Men’s Basketball Team had a tall task ahead of them Friday night in the Big Ten Tournament, as the Buckeyes squared off with the #2 Michigan State Spartans.

The Buckeyes hung around for the first half, trailing 33-26 at halftime, but Michigan State dominated in the second half en route to the 81-54 victory.

It wasn’t a surprise, as Michigan State has been fantastic all season with a record of 27-5 overall, but the second half onslaught, in which the Spartans outscored the Buckeyes 48-28, shows just how big the gap is between these two teams.
