NCAA Basketball Look Ahead; Sunday, Jan. 16
The college basketball season is already underway, and conference play is now fully on the schedule. Over the last several weeks, there have been a lot of surprises, and that isn’t going to stop anytime soon. As we’ve progressed through the season, there have been some major upsets, and the week ahead is shaping up to be even more spectacular.
Below, we will look at Penn State Nittany Lions and Ohio State buckeyes.
Penn State Nittany Lions Travels to Ohio to Face The Ohio State Buckeyes
The Penn State Nittany Lions will travel to Ohio this weekend to take on the Ohio State Buckeyes. Penn State is 8-6 on the year and are 3-3 in conference play.
Ohio State is ranked #16 in the country and are 10-3 on the year along with 4-1 in conference play. Both of these teams are on one game-winning streaks and will look to extend that after this game.
Ohio State is scoring 76.2 points a game and allowing 69.8 points a game this season. Penn State is scoring 67.2 points a game while allowing 65.0 points a game.
Both of these teams have struggled on both ends of the floor at times but have been much better in their recent games. I lean toward Ohio State in this one as they are at home.
