Ohio State’s men’s and women’s lacrosse teams held a doubleheader at the Ohio State Lacrosse Stadium on Saturday. Unfortunately both teams weren’t able to secure a win. The women’s squad tried to set the tone early, beating Vanderbilt 16-4 in their final game before they open up Big Ten next week. The men’s team fought […]
With everything going on outside of the actual basketball game — Senior Day and Bruce Thornton chasing down Dennis Hopson’s all-time scoring record, namely — it was easy to forget that Saturday’s game between Ohio State (20-11, 12-8) and Indiana (18-12, 9-11) also had massive NCAA Tournament implications. Aided by recent wins over Purdue and […]
After wins in No. 5 Ohio State women’s basketball’s first two games of the 2026 Big Ten Tournament, the Buckeyes’ biggest test came Saturday against the No. 1-seeded UCLA Bruins. Head coach Cori Close’s Bruins did not lose in their 19 previous Big Ten games headed into Saturday, so the Buckeyes needed to have their […]
It’s not an exaggeration to say that Saturday night’s game between Ohio State (19-11, 11-8) and Indiana (18-12, 9-10) is the biggest game of the Jake Diebler era. Seeking out their 20th win of the year and 12th Big Ten win, the Buckeyes could all but lock up their first NCAA Tournament bid since 2022 […]
The last time a Big Ten team ranked No. 5 or lower won a conference tournament was 2011, when Ohio State women’s basketball head coach Jim Foster led the Buckeyes over the No. 2 Penn State Nittany Lions. Those were different days. The Big Ten had 11 teams, the Penn State Nittany Lions were near […]

For the first time in six years, No. 5-seeded Ohio State women’s basketball did not make the Big Ten Tournament’s top-four seeds. With that comes a double-bye right into the Friday quarterfinals. The Buckeyes still made the tournament’s third day after a win over the No. 13 Indiana Hoosiers, but Friday was different against the […]
Friday, the Ohio State women’s basketball team returned to Indianapolis’ Gainbridge Fieldhouse for its second game in as many days in the 2026 Big Ten Tournament.

Ohio State starting point guard and four-year captain Bruce Thornton is one of them. Throw in the fact that he is […]
Welcome back to a much higher-spirited edition of “You’re Nuts”, where two of our basketball writers pick a (typically) basketball-related topic and debate it to the death — or until we learn Ohio State’s NCAA Tournament fate, whichever comes first. What a tone shift from one week ago, huh? Last week’s vibes were so incredibly […]
Heading into the final weekend of the regular season, the Ohio State men’s basketball team (19-11, 11-8) has topped both its win total and Big Ten win total from last season. With a win Saturday, Ohio State would have its first 20-win season since the 2023-24 season, and its first season with 12 or more […]

While the matchup […]

When Ohio State women’s basketball played the Indiana Hoosiers in the Big Ten regular season, the Hoosiers out-rebounded the Buckeyes 30-21, despite a rare size advantage for the Scarlet and Gray. Ohio State still won the game after it overcame an early 15-point deficit thanks to 34 points off 26 forced turnovers. On Wednesday in […]
The last time Ohio State women’s basketball entered the Big Ten Tournament with only a single-round bye, it was in the 2020 season. Head coach Kevin McGuff’s side went all the way to the tournament finale before the Buckeyes fell to the Maryland Terrapins. Now, six years later in Indianapolis, Indiana, the Buckeyes hoped to […]
I was sitting out by the pool in St. Petersburg, Florida, this past weekend, and I thought of a solution to the transfer portal that will finally solve its out-of-control nature. It was an idea so obvious to me that I’m wondering why I didn’t come up with it before. Here’s the solution: Every athlete […]
Ohio State’s offense is built around elite skill talent, a future NFL quarterback, All-American receivers, and breakout running backs. But when you strip the layers back to what makes that offense work, it often comes down to the line that protects and propels it. And no player on that line matters more for 2026 than […]
It is Big Ten Tournament time and the No. 5 seed Ohio State women’s basketball earned a single bye into Thursday’s games. After a one-sided opening game of the tournament between the No. 13 Indiana Hoosiers and No. 12 Nebraska Cornhuskers, head coach Teri Moren’s Hoosiers overcame a 20-point deficit right before halftime to earn […]
