Ohio State slips to 1-9 in its past 10 games after suffering a 77-69 defeat to Michigan in Ann Arbor.
Ohio State suffered its fourth straight loss Sunday as part of a 1-9 stretch in the past 10 games. Even worse for the Buckeyes, the defeat came at the hands of their archrival. Michigan won its second straight game in the all-time series against Ohio State with a 77-67 victory in Ann Arbor to pile onto the Buckeyes’ recent woes.
A 12-3 Michigan run from 13:13 to 9:50 allowed the Wolverines to mount their first double-digit advantage of the afternoon. After a Jett Howard 3-pointer at 6:01, Michigan had its largest lead of the half, 34-23. Ohio State shot five more free throws and received more substantive bench contributions to help make up for that difference, but still allowed three Wolverines to finish the first half with double-digit scoring totals.The Buckeyes carried the momentum they built toward the end of the first half into the first few minutes of the second. Ohio State made it a one-possession game with multiple buckets early in the period, but the Wolverines had an answer every time.
A McDaniel floater gave Michigan a 68-55 lead with the clock ticking under six minutes, and Ohio State needed a red-hot run to make it a game late.
