2025-2026 Ohio State Men's Basketball

With the win against PSU, the Buckeyes finish the first half of the B1G slate at 6-4, and 14-6 overall. If they can manage another 6-4 in the second half, I think they should make the NCAA tournament. Still have some winnable games left with @Maryland, a struggling USC, Wisconsin, @ P S U and IU - if they win those games and one more of the other group (@UW, UM, @MSU, @IA, PU), they should be in good shape.

Imagine if they had pulled out the UNC and Pitt games. They'd be 16-4!

Shoulda, woulda, coulda. Completely agree. We armchair coaches can look, and say, if you woulda done this, or that, or our guy closed on the ball more quickly, woulda changed the game. Missed shot, turnover, rebound, whatever. Hindsight's always 100%.

With 11 games left I think if they can win 5 of them they probably get in

The pitfalls are @ Maryland and @ Ped State, they pretty much have to win those 2 games. Maryland is 159th in NET and Ped State is 129th

Win those 2 and you gotta win 3 between @ Wisconsin, Michigan, USC, Virginia, Wisconsin, @ Sparty, @ Iowa, Purdue and Indiana

@Penn State is always a pitfall for OSU.
