Penn State vs Ohio State -2 O/U 142.5
Sometimes the ugliest bets are the toughest ones to make. Ohio State has lost 13 of their last 14 games and are out of post season contention. So why try? Why care? What’s the need? Quite simply, dignity, prosperity, and playing the spoiler is the three reasons. Dignity. Ohio State is playing at home, and from what I have seen, they may not be a good basketball team, but they at least try all the way until the end of the game. Kids do not like losing and the talent on this team hasn’t gotten where they were by losing. Prosperity. These kids still need to pay their bills and live out their dreams to get into a better program next year as well as have the chance to become involved in basketball in the future. Spoiler. Penn State is a clear bubble team to me, and they have some serious issues playing defense and rebounding the ball on offense. I think that Ohio State lives up to the 28th rating in offensive efficiency on Kenpom.
Ohio State -2 – 2 stars
