Ohio State will host Wisconsin in the quarterfinals of the Big Ten Tournament this weekend, in dire need to right the ship and make a statement.
The Buckeyes ended their regular season with a series against the Badgers losing one game and tying the other. That was also played in Columbus where the quarterfinals will be held.
Wisconsin (14-18-2) has a worse record than Ohio State (18-11-5), but that didn’t stop the Badgers winning the season series with two wins and tie against just one loss.
These games become vital because of the current ranking of the Buckeyes.
