Ohio State basketball had a prime opportunity to get back into the win column, hosting Wisconsin, but a strong second half from the Badgers sent the Buckeyes to a 71-60 loss.
One again, Chris Holtmann’s team couldn’t find a way to make plays late in the game, watching the Badgers make a run without any answers. The loss puts the Buckeyes season record at a solid, 12-4, but just 2-3 in conference. With three of the next four games on the road, with a tough Illinois team waiting after that stretch, the Bucks will have to grow up quickly.
Like we do after every Ohio State basketball game, we learned plenty after this disappointing home loss to Wisconsin and here are some observations we made after OSU’s second-straight loss.
