There’s a big one in the Schott today. No. 4 Ohio State takes on No. 3 Michigan with all kinds of things on the line. Not only are there regular-season Big Ten title aspirations at stake, but also a No. 1 seed possibility for both teams in the upcoming NCAA Tournament. And get this — it’s the first time the two programs have met on the court with both ranked in the top five … ever.
The Buckeyes have won seven-straight and ten of their last eleven, and the Wolverines have just one loss on the entire year. The game is set to tip at 1 p.m EST on CBS and it should be one whale of a game.
And, just recently released, the popular online sportsbook BetMGM agrees. According to the line just before tip, it has Ohio State as a 1.5 underdog at home.

Nobody expects a runaway by either team in this one, and hopefully, we are all in store for some good competitive theater. There’s been plenty of buildup, and you can get in on that too by watching some gameday trailers the Ohio State creative team released to whip everyone into a frenzy.
So, let’s go!
