Here we go again with another game in the Big Ten for Ohio State that it’ll have to put its best LeBron shoes forward for. Don’t let the record fool you. Maryland is a very talented team that can beat anyone in the league, as evidenced by its win over Illinois in Champaign.

The Buckeyes have become known as road warriors, with four top fifteen wins away from Value City Arena, and it’ll need to travel well again as it heads to College Park to tussle with the Terrapins.

With each passing game, there continues to be more and more on the line for the Buckeyes. We don’t know when first-place Michigan will be out of its COVID-19 protocol, but OSU is breathing down its neck, just one game out in the conference standings.

Let’s get into how this matchup shakes out.
