Ohio State Falls Out Of Latest Associated Press Top 25 Men's Basketball Poll
After losing four of its final seven games to close out the regular season, Ohio State fell out of the latest Associated Press Top 25 Poll, which was released on Monday afternoon.
Entering the week at No. 23, the Buckeyes lost to last-place Nebraska, 78-70, on Tuesday before rebounding with an 80-69 win over Michigan State on Thursday. Ohio State then fell at home to Michigan, 75-69, as the Wolverines spoiled the Senior Day festivities on Sunday afternoon.
The Buckeyes now enter this week’s Big Ten Tournament as the six seed and await the winner of Wednesday’s game between 11th-seeded Penn State and No. 14 seed Minnesota. They are a combined 4-0 against those teams this season.
Tipoff between Ohio State and its to-be-determined opponent is set for 9 p.m. ET on Thursday. It will be broadcast live on BTN.
