Tonight the Michigan State Spartans come to the Schott to take on the Ohio State Buckeyes. The two teams stand atop the Big Ten, and the winner will have a leg up on winning the Big Ten regular season championship. This should be a classic match-up.

Bedbugs In The Big Ten

Some traditionalists objected to Nebraska joining the Big Ten. Would the Cornhuskers have been invited if Big Ten officials knew that the University has an embarrassing bedbug problem? Officials at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln admit that they’ve found bedbugs in student rooms and common areas in four dorms. An article in the Lincoln Journal Star [...]

Tomorrow the Buckeyes play the Michigan Wolverines at the Schott. The winner will stay atop the Big Ten. The loser is, well, the loser. Michigan has a good team this year.

It was a good victory for the Buckeyes, who have won their last three games resoundingly after a tough loss to Illinois. Tonight, the Ohio State offense was clicking, [...]
The Big Ten, On The Road

The Big Ten is tough this year, and road wins are especially hard to come by. Just ask the Buckeyes — they lost two heart-breakers on the road. That’s why last night’s win against Nebraska was so valuable. Nebraska clearly is not one of the elite teams in the Big Ten, but this is a [...]

This afternoon Ohio State hosts Indiana at the Schott. Even though the season is young, it’s being viewed as a must-win game for the Buckeyes — but then again, just about every game in the Big Ten this year may be of the must-win variety. This year appears to be the most balanced Big Ten [...]

This season BMW and the Big Ten Conference announced a partnership to make the BMW the “official luxury automobile” of the Big Ten. I suppose we all just have to accept the fact that college athletics is awash in cash and that conferences like the Big Ten want to maximize their generation of money by [...]

Tonight Big Ten basketball teams begin playing their conference schedules. Wisconsin takes on Nebraska, and Illinois plays Minnesota. Ohio State kicks off its Big Ten season tomorrow against Northwestern. It should be a very interesting Big Ten season. By far the most surprising team so far has been Indiana.

Today Ohio State basketball coach Thad Matta notched his 300th career collegiate coaching victory. It is a milestone for a man who helped to haul the Ohio State basketball program out of the mire and vault it into the stratosphere — and therefore is a milestone well worth celebrating.

What a great game! What a great homecoming victory! And what a great coming of age moment for Braxton Miller! This was a game where Ohio State’s defense, led by John Simon and Johnathan Hankins, was dominant for three quarters.

We’re still a few weeks away from the start of the college basketball season for the Ohio State Buckeyes, and already you can feel the excitement building. This week, the first coaches’ poll of the season came out, and the Buckeyes landed at number 3. It’s meaningless, of course — but this year should be [...]
