In a conference as tough as the Big Ten, teams have to have a short memory. Ohio State is coming off a back and forth affair which saw it fall to No. 3 Michigan this past Sunday by five points.
It might be easy to think that the road gets a little bit easier facing Michigan State which finds itself uncharacteristically in the bottom half of the Big Ten standings. However, the Spartans have put together an impressive two-game stretch which includes an upset over No. 4 ranked Illinois earlier this week.
Ohio State dominated MSU with a 17 point victory over the Spartans in late January at Value City Arena. It’s safe to say the Spartans will have a little more confidence coming into this one after the upset win over the Illini.
