Ohio State defeated Penn State 83-79 last time out, but it was far from an impressive performance as the Buckeyes committed a season-high 17 turnovers. I think we'll see another lackluster win for the Buckeyes here, and while I do think they'll win outright, I really like Michigan State to cover the number.

The Spartans shot only 29% (16-of-56) from the field in an embarrassing 67-37 loss at Rutgers on Thursday. They are somewhat excused as it was the Spartans' first game since Jan. 8 after having three games postponed due to COVID-19 issues in the program. "I'm sure we have a little COVID hangover, I understand that, but that will not be an excuse for the way we played," Michigan State coach Tom Izzo said. "That would be a good excuse for losing a game, but not the way we played."

I have no doubt coach Izzo will have his players better prepared for this one.

10* play on Michigan State.
