With their 94-62 win over Penn State on Wednesday night, Ohio State got one step closer to the NCAA Tournament for the first time since 2022. The Buckeyes improved to 19-11 (11-8 in the Big Ten) on the season. Ohio State is on the bubble and has been for quite some time. February was a rough month for Jake Diebler and the men of the Scarlet and Gray.
Their NCAA Tournament chances seemed to take one step forward and then one step back last month. After going 2-2, Ohio State seemed to have turned a corner when they upset #24 Wisconsin in Columbus, 86-69.
