A win is a win, is a win. What unfolded in Value City Arena between Ohio State and Penn State was the definition of a Big Ten donnybrook. The Buckeyes came out on fire and put the Nittany Lions on their heels.
Penn State pushed back though and turned momentum around near the end of the first half and took that all the way through the last five minutes of the game and looked like it was on its way to a win. However, the Buckeyes found something late, made some plays on both ends, and squeaked out a hard-fought 83-79 win that could have gone either way.
The Nittany Lions interim coach Jim Ferry met with the media on a Zoom call after the game to discuss what transpired. He was obviously disappointed but gave a lot of credit to Ohio State as well.
