The Ohio State Buckeyes dropped their third straight game to open up Big Ten play, falling to Minnesota 78-68 on Sunday evening.
It doesn’t get any easier, as the Buckeyes travel to Wisconsin to face the No. 13 Badgers on Thursday night, where the Scarlet and Gray will once again play the underdog role.
Wisconsin lost to No. 20 Purdue on Sunday night and while that may be a sign that the Badgers are vulnerable, it also means they’ll be even more hungry to avoid falling into a skid.
The Big Ten schedule has not been kind to the Bucks so far, who played two of their first three games on the road and the lone home game against Purdue.
