Though Ohio State basketball fans weren't expecting a conference title of any kind or a Final Four run given the 2022-23 squad's young roster and the program's body of work under Chris Holtmann the previous five seasons, probably close to 100% of fans weren't expecting this either.
With seven regular season games left, the Buckeyes sport an 11-13 overall record and stand just 3-10 in regular season conference play, good for 13th place out of 14 teams.
After starting the season with a 10-3 record, including a 2-0 mark in conference play, the wheels have come off with the Buckeyes losing 10 of their last 11 games, all against league opponents.
