Ohio State's skid continues.
Despite a 16-0 second-half run that put the Buckeyes ahead by four after they were down by 12 in the period, Michigan closed with its own extended run of 13-4 to put the Buckeyes away 73-65.
The loss is Ohio State's third in a row when combined with defeats at Indiana and at home against No. 15 Wisconsin. It is the Buckeyes' 12th consecutive road loss dating back to Jan. 1, 2023.
