The Ohio State basketball team was facing the prospects of having a full week off after a big win over Wisconsin on the road, but no longer. According to a release from the university, the Buckeyes will host Penn State on Wednesday in a game that was rescheduled from January 6 because of COVID-19 protocols within the Penn State program.
As a result, instead of having eight days in-between the game against Wisconsin and a game with Michigan State on the 31st, OSU will have a home game starting at 7 p.m. Wednesday vs. the Nittany Lions.
Penn State currently has an overall record of 5-6, and sit at 2-5 in the conference, winning its last two games against Rutgers and Northwestern at home.
