CHICAGO – Ohio State, put down your pencils.
After falling, 77-70, to Michigan State on Friday afternoon, the Buckeyes’ NCAA tournament resume is complete. All they can do now is wait.
But in the 48-hour period between the team’s run in the Big Ten tournament concluding and the selection show airing on Sunday night, Ohio State believes it can sleep soundly. Chris Holtmann, for one, said he feels “good” about the team’s odds of earning an at-large bid.
“Who knows what can happen, but I feel like our body of work has positioned us very, very well,” Holtmann said.
