We know you’re getting pumped up for Ohio State to take on Clemson in the Sugar Bowl in just a couple of days, but until then, we’ve got some Buckeye hoops to watch.

OSU is off to a decent start to the season, but now that the Big Ten games have started, it’s been a little harder to snatch victory away from opponents. Ohio State sits at 7-2 overall, but just 1-2 in the conference thanks to some close losses on the road.

The Buckeyes are set to get back home Wednesday night, and they’re facing a Nebraska Cornhuskers squad that’s trying to turn things around. It’s the Big Ten, so an off night by any team can result in a less than desirable outcome, but the oddsmakers don’t see that occurring in this one.

In fact, according to BetMGM, Ohio State is favored by -12.5 against Nebraska.

As we know though, games aren’t played on paper, so let’s just look for a win from the Buckeyes. Here’s to hoping that’s exactly what we see.
