Ohio State Entrenched on NCAA Tournament Bubble As Season Heats Up

Buckeyetology is back thanks to the recent efforts of the 2024-25 Buckeyes.

Last year I ran this piece for exactly three weeks in January, the first edition on Jan. 9 when Ohio State was projected as a seven seed in the NCAA Tournament and the last on Jan. 25 when the Buckeyes fell outside the Big Dance picture after an all-to-familiar January collapse under Chris Holtmann. More losses followed and despite a late-season surge under then-interim head coach Jake Diebler, the Buckeyes settled for the NIT.

One year since that discontinuation, the series is suddenly worth resurrecting.
