Ohio State basketball vs. Wisconsin: How and where to watch and listen to the game Saturday

Get all the information you need to catch the Buckeyes and Badgers as they square off in a Big Ten conference matchup on Saturday afternoon.

The Ohio State Basketball team let one slip away against Purdue on Tuesday evening. After being in control for most of the game, the Buckeyes let Purdue keep chipping away and finally take a lead with seconds remaining in the contest.

OSU was on a three-game winning streak before the loss to the Boilermakers and now head in Madison for a showdown with Wisconsin. The Bucks might be feeling a little bit of pressure here. They certainly don’t want to drop two conference games in a row and the Kohl Center isn’t an easy place to come out with a win — fans or no fans.

There is some good news for head coach Chris Holtmann and the rest of the Buckeye basketball team as guard CJ Walker could potentially be back for the game against the Badgers. Walker has been sidelined with an injury for the past four games. His presence at the point guard position would be a huge benefit for Ohio State.

The Buckeyes come into the contest ranked No. 15 while the Badgers are ranked No. 10 in the nation. Wisconsin sits tied for second place in conference play at 6-2, with Ohio State is in the middle of the pack at 5-4.

Ohio State at Wisconsin: 3 Keys to a Buckeye victory

Ohio State is traveling to Madison to try and win another Big Ten road game, but it won’t be easy. Here are three keys to victory.

It’s time for another war of attrition known as life on the road in the Big, bad Big Ten. Ohio State has bucked the trend this year somewhat by losing two games at home, yet finding a way to get a couple of rare wins on the road in the league.

Now it must try and do it again, against a team that’s very difficult to play against because of the methodical and physical nature of what it stands for.

It’s a chance to get back to .500 in the league, but it won’t be easy. The Badgers rarely drop a game in conference play at home, even in years when they aren’t competing for an upper-echelon finish in the Big Ten.

Will Ohio State show that it really has turned things back around, or will this be a set back on the way to postseason positioning?
