COLUMBUS, Ohio (WCMH) — The Ohio State men's basketball team has moved up to No. 16 in the latest AP Top 25 Poll, a three spot jump from its previous No. 19 ranking.
The Buckeyes had just one game last week as they defeated IUPUI 83-37 on Tuesday to maintain its undefeated record at home in Columbus. OSU's Saturday game against Nebraska was postponed.
Ohio State will play twice on the road to end January with a Thursday evening content at Minnesota followed by a Sunday afternoon match-up against No. 6 Purdue in West Lafayette.
For the second week in a row, the No. 1 team in the county has changed as the Auburn Tigers claim the top spot after a massive win on Saturday against No. 12 Kentucky.
