Ohio State vs. Northwestern 2016 final score: 3 things to know from Ohio State's 65-56 win

The Buckeyes beat Northwestern for the 11th time in a row, and this one could actually be pretty important

It was sloppy, choppy, and saturated with fouls, but ultimately, Ohio State found a way to win. The Buckeyes overcame poor shooting, foul trouble and more, thanks to huge nights from Trevor Thompson and Kam Williams, and grabbed a huge win on the road against Northwestern, their 11th in a row against the Wildcats.

The Buckeyes didn't get off to a great start, as Keita Bates-Diop picked up two fouls in the first three minutes and missed almost the entire first half.
