Columbus, Ohio – As it turns out, Michigan State’s run as the No. 1 team in the nation will be a brief one.
That much was clear after the Spartans faced their most significant road test of the season on Sunday and failed miserably in an 80-64 loss to Ohio State at Value City Arena.
The Spartans (15-2, 3-1 Big Ten) had their 14-game winning streak ended as Ohio State used a 20-2 run that spanned the end of the first half and into the second to hand Michigan State its second straight loss in Columbus and keep the Buckeyes (13-4, 4-0) tied atop the Big Ten standings.
