Purdue Boilermakers (-6.5) at Ohio State Buckeyes| KenPom predicts: Purdue by 4
Game Date/Time: Sunday, Mar. 1, at 1:30 p.m. ET
Location: Columbus, OH
TV: CBS
Radio: 97.1 FM/ 971thefan.com
The Ohio State men’s basketball team (17-11, 9-8) has one last chance to make a power move and thrust themselves into the NCAA Tournament field against the No. 8 Purdue Boilermakers (22-6, 12-5) Sunday afternoon.
As of Saturday night, Ohio State was projected as the third team out of the NCAA Tournament according to Bracket Matrix. Purdue is a projected 3-seed, and is also No. 7 in the NET, making this Ohio State’s final Quad-1 game of the regular season.
Purdue has lost two of its last three games, having just lost to No. 13 Michigan State Thursday night at Mackey Arena. Ohio State’s loss to Iowa on Wednesday night represented their first losing streak of the season — a loss to Purdue would become the program’s first three-game losing streak since losing to Michigan, Northwestern, and UCLA in February 2025.
Ohio State’s Bruce Thornton is 50 points away from becoming the all-time leading scorer in program history. Purdue’s Braden Smith is 73 assists away from becoming the all-time assists leader in college basketball history.
Connor’s prediction: No. 8 Purdue 82, Ohio State 70
