Ohio State Buckeyes (-6.5) vs. Maryland Terrapins| over/under 151.5
Game Date/Time: Thursday, February 5 at 8:30 p.m. ET
Location: College Park, Maryland
TV: FS1
Radio: 97.1 FM/ 971thefan.com
Ohio State (14-7, 6-5) travels to the house of horrors known as the Xfinity Center on Thursday night to tangle with the 16th-place Maryland Terrapins (8-13, 1-9). The Buckeyes are 1-6 at the Xfinity Center in its last seven trips, including a 24-point beatdown in last year’s Big Ten opener.
The Terrapins are 2-10 in their last dozen games and are struggling through one of the most difficult seasons in program history in Buzz Williams’ first year at the helm. Maryland has lost its last two games by a combined 73 points.
This game will be a Quad-3 game for Ohio State. A win would do very little to improve Ohio State’s NCAA Tournament resume, but a loss would put them in a nearly impossible position moving forward.
Connor’s prediction: Ohio State 83, Maryland 79
