Ohio State vs. Michigan 2019 basketball game preview and prediction

Ohio State hits the road again, this time to take on arch-rival Michigan. We’ve got the preview and prediction of what’s going to happen.

Okay, it’s about to get real as things get close to heading down the home stretch here in college basketball. Ohio State is still looking to get its dancing shoes on, but there’s still work to do. Right now the Buckeyes are solidly in the field, but a less than stellar finish could have them on the outside looking in.

And don’t look now, but staring OSU right in the face is a game against a Michigan team that’s had a season paralleling its own. The Wolverines raced out to a great start and were once in the top five of the country, but fell into a bit of a downward spiral just like Ohio State.

Now the two are set to match up for their only regular-season meeting of the year. The winner continues to add to its resume, but the loser might be looking for more answers on the schedule to bolster the chances of remaining off the proverbial bubble.

How will it all play out?
