After reeling off seven wins in an eight-games stretch from mid-January to mid-February, OSU hoops has slumped at the worst possible time with five consecutive losses in league play to fall out of most bracket projections ahead of the 2023 NCAA Tournament later this month.
But OSU’s hopes, despite recent struggles, are far from dead yet. Jerry Palm has OSU as one of the last four teams out of the bracket, and ditto for Joey Brackets, so the recent slump streak has for now stunted OSU’s tourney hopes but clearly hasn’t completely killed it.
