Best photos of Ohio State basketball at Michigan State

The Ohio State men’s basketball team tried to continue its positive momentum heading into the Big Ten Tournament on Saturday when it traveled to Michigan State.

The Buckeyes fell down early and could never quite reel in the Spartans completely despite a valiant comeback effort in the second half. At one point, Ohio State pulled to within three points after being down by 20, trying to make things very interesting down the stretch. In the end, though, it was too big of a hole to climb out of in an 84-78 defeat on senior night in East Lansing.
